HOLY KRISTAPS: All Things Porzingis | TRADED to WAS

[cow]

All I get is "video no longer exists." Was it maybe a little too straightforward for someone's liking?

Still works.  Summary:

-At first he was asked to do things he was less comfortable with but did what was best for the team (perimeter).  Feels like he's being utilized more this year in his comfortable areas.  
-Wasn't frustrated by load management but feels people without medical expertise had too much say in his playing time.
-Doesn't care about outside voices.  Knows those close to him see how hard he works.
-Injury prone?  Depends.  Both of his major injuries are contact injuries and those can't be avoided.
-Can he be elite again a la Knicks?  Thinks he's playing his best basketball of his career.  Still trying to get in a rhythm and playing with a great player with Luka is different than being a solo act.
-Says his relationship with Luka is good.  He says they get along off the court.  Didn't go as far as to say they were friends.  Have had ups-and-downs but like how they are communicating.
-How does he stay positive?  Balance of listening to outside noise versus ignoring it.   Continues to focus on working hard to improve.  
-Does he feel appreciated?  "I do."  with no hesitation in the response.  Max players have expectations and he needs big numbers and wins to prove his worth.
-Dallas starving for a winner?  Says he feels it.  Thinks the team has the potential to be a winner.
-Most important accomplishment this year?  "Win a championship."  with no hesitation in the response.
