There are many really good players in the NBA right now, I mean, the league has a lot of talent. So I don't know if that's true or not (that I am considered the best right now), but I appreciate the compliment.

I think it's great everywhere. Last year we were in Abu Dhabi and about eight or nine years ago we were in London. I think it's excellent for the game and for the fans to be able to come and watch an NBA game.
