John Wall: To be a contender you need veteran guys willing to understand their role

Washington Wizards star John Wall talks with Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes on their All The Smoke podcast (transcription via clutchpoints):

“I love the team we have now. We have some great pieces and a lot of young guys that’s just getting the opportunity to play where they probably would have never gotten it on other teams,”

“But I feel if you want to be one of those teams (that’s competing for a title),  you got to have veteran guys around that’s willing to understand their role. That’s kind of what we dealt with in the years past with our teams, nobody really understood their role.”
