climate doubt entire good playoff run team
We're good enough to be a playoff team with those two, no doubt about it in my mind. We're a different team with them. We're fast. We run and get out on the break. ... The entire climate has changed.

We haven't had a power forward here since (Shawn) Kemp who can run and jump and play above the rim like he does.
beat built entirely five high improved number run shoot six team trading
After the trading deadline, I put in the whole thing entirely and we improved after the first five or six games. I've got to tell you, as long as this team is built the way it is, that number (points allowed) is going to be high because we're going to run and shoot the ball. We can't beat you just with our defense. We're not built that way. We have to beat you also with our offense.
again defined miami orlando quarter run stops third time tough won year
We've had such a tough time this year in the third quarter, but we won the third quarter in Orlando and Miami and we won it again tonight. They did what they were going to do and made a run back at us. Finally, we planted our feet, defined ourselves, and got the stops we needed.

anyone damn floor god good hands nice quick remember run strong touch
He can run the floor as well as anyone I can remember for a big man. God just said, 'Here you go, you're 6-10.' His damn hands are like gloves. He's quick and strong and he can jump. And he's got a nice touch around the basket. I think he can become a very, very good low-post player.

bad behind fall fight knew mystery playing problem quarter third
We have a problem playing in the third quarter and that showed tonight. We just fall behind and have to find a way to fight back into it. If I knew why we were a bad third-quarter team, I would make those changes. It's a mystery to me.
