Here's the full quote from Avery Bradley via Chris Forsberg of ESPN.com:

That’s my goal: To be Defensive Player of the Year. I feel like [the award is] possible for me if I go out there with the right mindset.
The only thing I wanted to change in the past was being a little bit more disciplined on the defensive end. Last year I was definitely disciplined. I didn’t reach as much; I was trying to be solid to help our team. But this year is going to be a mix of both because I feel like I’m capable of being even better because I got a chance to learn from my mistakes in the past and now I know exactly what I need to do.
