anytime five league record road six teams tough winning year
Anytime we can get road wins, it's huge. It's a tough league to get road wins. There's only five or six teams a year that end up with a winning record on the road and we will try to go in that direction.
road time waiting
We've always said there's something better down the road waiting for you. It wasn't the right time or the right place.
camp group guys hate hear love players playoffs rule season start training until
We're not going to rule out the playoffs until we're mathematically eliminated. I know the players would hate to hear this, but I'd love to go to training camp with this group of guys right now and start the season all over again.
ahead fighting front means playoff spot stay teams winning
We're still fighting for that playoff spot and that just means those teams in front of us have to keep winning to stay ahead of us.
far games happen left matter number people playing refuse
With the number of games we have left to go, the one thing we refuse to let happen is we're not going to come out and go through the motions. It doesn't matter who's out there playing as far as I'm concerned. We're just going to play the people who play the hardest.
basketball bearing commitment games next training win year
What we did this year has no bearing on how many games we win next year. There has to be a commitment in the off-season to get better, and there has to be a commitment when we come back to training camp. If we make that commitment, then we'll be a better basketball team.
free higher hold line nine percent percentage shoot throws turn
We hold then to 40 percent from the floor, they shoot nine free throws but we turn it over 17 times. We need to shoot a higher percentage and get to the line more.
guards second
Other than Carlos, our guards just got tentative in the second half.
good job phenomenal pierce
Pierce had a phenomenal game. But other than that, we did a real good job defensively.
care either guys help somebody
I tell the guys we've got to take care of our own business, and we're either going to get help from somebody else or not.
damn kids survive teach teacher tests
I think the way you survive as a teacher is that you teach the kids so damn well that they are going to do well on tests anyway.
detroit draft guys needs pick skilled took
I think he just needs a chance. He's a very skilled player, but he hasn't had much of an opportunity. He was the No. 2 pick in the draft and Detroit took him for a reason. Sometimes we just pick guys who take a little longer.
best bitter definitely focused game loss player reason simply team worst
I think this was definitely our worst loss of the season. It's very bitter to me simply for one reason that we couldn't come into the game focused because the other team had their best player out.
best bitter bottom definitely focused game loss player season sloppy top worst
I think this was definitely our worst loss of the season and it's very bitter for me because their best player (Iverson) was out. I thought we were sloppy offensively the whole game and we weren't focused defensively. I thought from top to bottom it was from every individual, our worst game of the year.
