coach concerned dying five four game interest level loyal
Our coach was concerned that the interest level was dying down. We had about four or five loyal guys, but you can't play a game with four or five guys.
biggest fits miss pace playing quicker reason
I think the biggest reason we miss him is the way we're playing now. We're playing a quicker pace and it fits him so well.
good presence ran
I thought we got off to a really good start. We had a presence defensively. We ran the ball. The spacing was good.
defensive finishing miss sets talked
I thought that we just couldn't keep them off the boards. We talked about finishing our defensive sets and we'd get them to miss and then they'd get the rebound.
changing good half practices
I thought under the circumstances of having only one and a half to two practices and changing systems, we were pretty good out there. Overall, I was really pleased.
game good moved proud second won
I think we would have won the game if we'd just had one of them. I was proud of our effort. I was proud of the execution, which was so much better. We moved the ball. We only had 12 turnovers. We had 22 assists. ... . There were some good things in the second half. They were just too big for us.
boil concepts free improve line throw
I think (we can make a run). We have to improve the defense. The concepts are better but it's going to boil down to them. (Tonight) just can't happen. We can't let them go to the free throw line like that.
army army-and-navy high spent straight
I went into the U.S. Army straight out of high school. I spent 21 years in the Army before I retired.
kenny nice thomas
Kenny Thomas is a nice player, but he shouldn't have 18 rebounds. That just can't happen.
helped stuff
I think it helped us to go with some stuff that was not scripted. We wanted to go with something they wouldn't expect.
allen amazes ball heart playing ray
It could be fatigue. We all know it's been a long year. Ray Allen still amazes me. He's playing really hard. He competed his heart out, he just couldn't get the ball in the basket.
cooked huge neat wife
His wife was awesome, cooked us this huge meal. It was such a neat day.
upside
His upside is a joke. He could be really special.
basketball behind closed enormous good kid kobe natural phil respect type
He has an enormous ego, which is good because that's why he's (in the NBA). He probably doesn't, behind closed doors, respect Kobe (Bryant) but he's got to respect (coach) Phil (Jackson) so that will kind of keep him in his place. He was the type of kid who had natural basketball instinct. He did things I couldn't teach.
