Alge Crumpler Quotations

When it all boils down, I know where I'm going to be, the fans know where I'm going to be, other teams know where I'm going to be and I know my teammates damn-sure know where I'm going to be. That's all the matters.

I hate it for Rodney that he got injured because that was one of those marquee tests for myself that I looked forward to. You want to match up with a high quality player like that.
