"You can tell, his name has been everywhere in being traded this year, and his name hasn't been brought up a lot on the positive side. So, for him to come in and have a great mindset...to prove people that he belongs on this floor. That's great to have when you have somebody that wants to prove something on the floor, but also he does it in the right way. That's a luxury to have."
