Here's a quick summary.

(interview was before Philly game)

(Jason proposed to his girlfriend at a New Year's Eve party at Sheed's house, the whole team was there)


I'm trying to come off the bench and bring as much energy as I possibly can

it feels good to be compared to Barkley (on TNT), he's one of the greats and I grew up watching him

(they listed Barkley at 6'7" but he was only 6'3"--are you taller than 6'3"?)
yeah--barely

(it says 6'7" here--so they lie about you too?)
yeah, but I like it, it's a good lie

(about team chemistry)
we're one big family, no problems at all--the only problem is getting our heads together on the court and getting ready to play

(about going against Ben)
it was strange seeing him in a Bulls uniform, other than that it was fun being on the court with him

I still can't believe Barkley only was 6'3. He was one of my childhood heroes and back then, there was no internet or such thing and everyone of us thought he could be smaller than 6'7...
