"You know why they do that with Cameron? Because he gives so much to the game. He gives so much to his team. Whatever it takes, he's an unselfish superstar, and that translates to the NBA. "You look at what Tim Duncan did. I'm not comparing Cameron to Tim Duncan, but he was another guy that wasn't [athletically] a Kevin Garnett or a Tracy McGrady or a Kobe Bryant or Shaquille O'Neal. But you know what he did? He won five championships in that era [against] those players — the Kobes and the Shaqs, because of his IQ, because of his skill set, and because his team would follow him . "That is who Cameron is. He's a modern-day version of that. People are going to follow him because of what he gives to the team and what he gives to the game. That translates into winning.
