Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon says that he’s extremely fortunate to be a part of the team’s unselfish style.
(via Denver Nuggets):
Mike Singer: “How rare is that where a team is so pervasive where everybody is willing to be unselfish? I know you’ve only played on two teams, but seeing other guys around the league, how rare is it what you guys have here and how special is it that everybody seems to have bought into the agenda?”
Gordon: “It’s really rare. It’s a blessing. It’s awesome to play with these guys. These guys are so unselfish. They’re so passionate about basketball, and they understand that you’ve got to keep energy in the ball, and if you play the right way, everything will work out the way it’s supposed to. We can win. Everybody gets love when you win. Yeah, it was nice just knowing that I could be myself, and that was enough. I didn’t have to be any more or any less. Yeah, it’s cool. I get to just do what the team asks of me, and sometimes it’s score, sometimes it’s rebound, sometimes it’s defend the best player, sometimes it’s make plays. So it could be something different on any given night, but every night I get to just be myself.”
