last team wins
We just weren't there. This team has been through a lot, but we've had some pretty significant wins in the last 12 games.
badly last push treated
If they hadn't been treated so badly under the last administration, there wouldn't have been such a push for this,
court finally five floor games last played runs time
When he runs the court he can just floor you. He's finally getting it. In the last five games he's played as well as at any time in his career.
ball below extra foul front good guy job last
We wanted to keep an extra guy in front of Kobe. And keep the last guy open. When the ball was below the foul line, I think we did a really good job of that.
deserved last win
The last two games, they've become a team. I think they deserved to win this game. It just didn't happen.
dug hole shortcuts start taking terrible
We were taking shortcuts out there, got off to a terrible start defensively and really dug a hole offensively.
kept ray scoring terrific
We kept scoring and then Ray got hot. That's a terrific win. They're awfully good.
ahead huge stayed step training
We just weren't there, sorry, we just weren't there. It's huge to have a training camp. But they were just better than us tonight. They were a step ahead of us, stayed a step ahead of us. We just didn't get in the game. Nothing worked. We just got our butts kicked.
seattle shame team
To me, Seattle has always been a cornerstone of the NBA. It would be shame if the team had to leave.
defense hands played team worst
This team when I first got there played defense with their hands down - the worst I've ever seen.
column expect five fully games loss
We fully expect to try to make the playoffs. We're five games out of the loss column and we're in first place in our division. These are the kind of games we have to get.
good respond
We weren't very good at anything. We just weren't there. We didn't respond physically. We didn't respond mentally. We just got our butts kicked.
basket bell contested easy pick points poison rather shot
You have to pick your poison with them. How many points did Bell have (23)? It's something you had to live with. I'd rather them take contested threes than get an easy shot at the basket inside.
commitment credit definitely players playing
You have to give the players a lot of credit because it's definitely different than the way we were playing before. It's at the other end of the spectrum, and it was going to take a commitment on their part, a lot of concentration.
