Sarunas Jasikevicius Quotes

I'm not the guy who will take many shots... Some games I might, just because of the way the defense will work. I haven't really been the one who's shooting a lot. I much more prefer to get my teammates involved and make sure the team is running properly. I would like to take 20 shots, don't get me wrong, but it might not happen. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I would like to have some kind of role on this team, there's no question about it but ultimately we help Pacers to win... Don't get me wrong. I would like to play. I would like to play a lot. That's not a question. But we're one month away from the season, and there's so much more important stuff than your role on the team. If you're in shape, if you come ready to play, if you take care of your body, then that other stuff will take care of itself. I really believe that. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I was more aggressive. I was looking for my shot. I didn't go into New Jersey (Tuesday) and do many things. I was just trying to get my first game under my belt and move on. The season is very long. The most positive thing for me is I'm more comfortable with every minute. That's the only thing I can ask for right now. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I want to be a point guard; I believe that's my position. I don't mind playing two-guard, but I wasn't very comfortable there, and it was noticeable in my play. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I think there's a lot of uncertainty about the trade, let's be honest. It's not helping us out, that's for sure. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I think I'm going to have to adapt to the team much more than they're going to have to adapt to me. I'm a rookie. I might be very old for a rookie, but I am one. So I'm going to adjust to the team. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I remember a lot of guys saying in the NBA everybody just sort of plays and then the last six or seven minutes you decide the game. Well, to tell you the truth, the team that shows up to play earliest normally wins. I totally disagree with that. So many games are lost in the first quarter. You get down 15 and it's such an uphill battle. - Sarunas Jasikevicius

I mean, you've lost four in a row. You hear good news in the trade. You think you can go in and have a good practice, but then the first thing you hear is that. It's crazy. - Sarunas Jasikevicius
