I have absolute confidence that what I put forth every single night and every single day, in front of the eyes and ears of what is the NBA; I believe that's gonna get me a shot to maybe get a 10 day contract, to hopefully get two, to hopefully get three. I want to push teams to make decisions on me, based on what they think I can bring to the organisation. This is definitely not me throwing in the towel. 100 percent, not even f***ing close. This is about job security, and looking forward to the future.
