bad forward habit loss moving start step steps taking
This was a bad loss for us. We have to get out of this habit of taking two steps forward and one step back before we can start moving forward again.
execute execution expect faith flying gate harder offensive start work
I didn't like our offensive execution at all. I didn't expect us to come flying out of the gate to start the season, but I have faith in these guys. We've got to work harder and execute better at the offensive end.
difference game gave half move second sharp start win
I thought we tightened it up a lot in the second half and we only gave up 41. That was the difference in the game. I don't think we were as sharp offensively and defensively to start the game but your going to have that. We'll take the win and move on and see if we can keep it going.
bad bit cocktail hours relax road savor starting talk
Give me 24 hours at least to savor this one. We just had a bad road trip. I want to relax a little bit and have a cocktail and then we'll talk about the starting lineup some other day.
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.
execution gave offensive quarter start third
We had way too many turnovers in the first half. We gave them 17 points. Our offensive execution to start the third quarter was poor.
camp capable group guys hate hear love players playing season since start third together training week
I look at it that since we put this group of guys together in the third week of February, how are we playing and what are we capable of becoming? I know the players would hate to hear this, but I'd love to go to training camp with this group right now and start the season all over again.
both effort everybody game last second sluggish starters talked team total
Before the game we talked about just getting a total team effort tonight. From everybody - from both units, our starters and our second unit. I thought we really got that tonight. We didn't come out sluggish like we did last night.
both effort field game goals great helps percentage reserves shooting starters talked team total
Before the game we talked about a total team effort -- getting something from both the starters and reserves -- and I thought we really got that tonight. We had 41 field goals and 24 assists, which is a great percentage and when you're shooting 58 percent, it helps a great deal.
caliber coaches detroit easy four guys means quite remaining seven starting voted
The Detroit thing is such an aberration. It's easy to say they have no starting All-Stars, but they have four All-Star caliber players. Those remaining seven guys that are voted in by the coaches -- I think that means more, quite honestly.
beginning came effort gave guys happy hard needed played win
This was a much needed win and I was very happy with the effort that the guys gave tonight. We just came out and played very hard from the beginning of the game.
control difficult points team tempo
When you get down 20 points to a team like Houston, it is difficult because of the way they can control the tempo of the game.
everybody half page
We've just got to get everybody on the same page here. It's a disappointing first half to the All-Star break.
people realize searching stop tragic
We wouldn't stop searching for them if we thought they were still alive. It's tragic but most people would realize that we do have to be realistic.
