That's the type of energy we need. It's good to see guys getting an opportunity.... Last year when I came (to the Warriors via a Feb. 24 trade), our bench was so critical. The energy they brought was fun and exciting. That's what we were missing.
We were not as sharp as we usually are, ... They have very good one-on-one players, and down the stretch we couldn't hit our open 3-point shots.
It's good that we got kicked tonight. It lets us know where we stand, and know that we've still got to keep working hard.
We didn't really do a good job of shutting down anybody today.
He was hot and has been hot for a while. It is good for us that he is playing at the level he is playing at and he keeps us in a lot of ballgames.
He made a good move, but I made a few good ones myself.
a good person, and he's young, which means he is immature.
I'm just using this training camp as a base to build up my strength, ... We've got a good month until the season starts. We're not in a rush. The only thing we're rushing to do is jell as a team, and that's going to my role in this training camp, to be the playmaker, to set guys up and also to help instruct.
We just played in spurts. You can't play in spurts on the road and expect to win.
We had the game and we let it slip away. We were in control of the game pretty much with a minute to go. From that point on, we've got to manufacture points and make plays and get stops, but we didn't.
I used to always brick, ... I used to always do like UCLA or Indiana late game, on the road, and I'll always miss.
Breakfast would be, like, egg whites with tomatoes, turkey sausage and feta cheese. Then for lunch I'd have salmon and spinach or something like that.
Bring it on, ... With the talent that we have, I definitely see that burden being lifted.
Sometimes it happens, sometimes it doesn't. As long as we win.
