behind closed create deception hard justify lots meetings whatever work
I just know him too well. I know what he's like behind closed doors. I've been in lots and lots of meetings with him. The only way he can justify what he did was to create all this deception that I was some kind of ... monster. That I was hard to work with or whatever ... and they were all lies.
break four fun great guys help kept looked rules studying zone
I just kept studying it. And studying it. And studying it. Studying different teams. And the zone rules. I really got a lot done in four days. I looked at the All-Star break as a great opportunity, with no distractions to get in there and grow, so I can help these guys more. So if was fun for me.

Chris was all over the floor. He was above everyone tonight. As good as he played, he has a lot more potential. His upside is huge.
appreciate chris defense good guys mike normally playing question
If you want to play really good defense, you have to have some defensive-minded guys. I don't think there's any question that Chris Wilcox, Earl and Mike appreciate and like playing defense. When you get guys like that, normally your defense will get better.
certain difference players
Certain players we had before didn't want to be here. The difference with the players we have now is enormous. That equates to a lot of wins.
bitter crunch fourth game luke playing time
I'm comfortable with Earl in the game (in the fourth quarter) because he's playing so good. If Luke was playing that good, he'd be in the game. Earl was in the game in the bitter end, but Luke was in there in crunch time also.
assuming goes hopefully maybe rehab rest schedule sunday vigorous
I'm assuming he'll be a day-to-day situation. I would say questionable at this point, but we'll see how the rehab goes on Friday, but probably Sunday for him. Our schedule is pretty vigorous the rest of the way. Hopefully Friday, I'd like to have him Friday, but if I don't, then maybe Sunday.

If Ray had an average shooting night, we win.

He's so athletic and so quick that he should be in the low post. He's got good instincts to play. ... I'm thrilled about him.
ball fast feeling guys key wants
He's feeling comfortable with how we want to play, and you're going to see him get better. He's so fast with the ball that our guys need to get used to him. But the key thing is that he wants to be here and he's going to be here for a while.
anybody ball good great night seen shoot
I don't know if I've ever seen anybody shoot the ball like that. It was a great night for him and good way for us to end the season.
