contender hope improve run
We know we have to improve defensively to be a contender down the stretch. I just hope we don't run out of time.
consistent game hope level minds playing turn
When we get our minds to playing defense, we can turn any game around. I hope we get to a more consistent level of play.
aggressive attacking attention average bit draws effort game man open
Because he draws so much attention and is so aggressive attacking the basket, I'd like to see him find the open man just a little bit more. He could average 10 assists a game if he made a concerted effort to do that. But the man is only 24 years old.
expect help shoulders turned
We've been on big fellow's shoulders the whole year. We expect him to help us get where we need to go, and that's to the finals. But we know he can't do it by himself. Man, he just turned 34.
breathe kept life session turn
We can't turn and look at the refs for answers. We did nothing but breathe life into that team. It was nothing but a CPR session out there. They just kept waltzing to the basket.
babies kids raising steered sure
We got babies raising babies, and its important for us as responsible adults to go out and do what we can to make sure that our kids are steered in the right direction.
aspect came changed pleased totally
When the new ownership came in, they made some decisions I wasn't pleased with. And when they changed the whole aspect of it, I just totally lost interest.
breathe life
We did nothing but breathe life into this team, that's all we did.
hope run time
Time and work. I just hope we don't run out of time.
foolish trying
We can't look at them. We've got to go out there and do it ourselves. We're foolish if we're trying to look at the referees.
time
It is discouraging. But at the time same, I know it could have been worse.
game missing respect
What I'll say is this: I respect his consistency. Never missing a game in 31 years, that's something.
biggest concern stop worrying
We've got to stop worrying about the offense, too. Our biggest concern should be our defense.
looking year
Come on, man. He's 24 years old. When I was 24 years old, I could play all year round. I was always looking for a run. Always.
