both forward gotten looking ok parties point sure
I thought we had gotten to the point that both parties were OK with it. We're disappointed and I'm sure he is. He was looking forward to being here.
cheering fantastic job
I thought they did a fantastic job cheering us on.
came compete felt five hurt last minutes seems six team three
I thought we came out better than we have the last five or six games. It just seems like in the last two or three minutes of each quarter, they hurt us. The Spurs are a championship team and they can really buckle down on you defensively during those stretches. The one thing I want more than anything right now is to compete and I felt like we did that tonight.
effort guys points talking win
I thought our effort was much better. Defensively we're just having way too many lapses. Guys aren't communicating out there and talking to each other. You give up (52) points in the paint, you're not going to win too many games.
decision everybody forward glad looking playing
I think all the players, everybody in our organization is glad that it's over with and the decision has been made and we can just keep looking forward to playing basketball.
few guys hard locker mental physical room simple team toughness understand watch
I think a few of those guys in that locker room have quit. It's disappointing to me; (those guys) won't be here, it's as simple as that. We have no mental or physical toughness on this team right now. It's just hard to watch that; it's hard to watch these young guys that don't understand and don't get it.
job terrible
We just did a terrible job defensively for pretty much the whole game.

We were able to get a young centre that we feel is going to get much better and better, that has shown improvement. (Plus) we got a veteran in Aaron Williams (and) we've still got our first-round picks.
aaron basketball best center phoenix playing shown type veteran year
We were able to get a young center that we feel is going to get much better and better, that's shown improvement. He had his best year in Phoenix playing the type of basketball that we play. And then we got a veteran in Aaron Williams. We've still got our first-round picks.
game mean played simple
We played like the game did not mean a thing. That was everybody, obviously, but as a team, collectively, we were awful. Simple as that.
basketball favor hard played tempo type
We played hard tonight. We had the tempo in our favor and that's the type of basketball that we want to play.
adversity coming face game good guys job rest together
With all the adversity we've faced, I told them before the game that you guys have always done a good job of coming together in the face of adversity. That is something we're going to have to do, not just tonight, but the rest of the season.
limited practices seen
We've had limited practices but from what I've seen of him in practice, I like what he does.
five good job last played six
We played a lot better than we have in the last five or six games. The one thing that I wanted us to do was compete, and I thought we did a pretty good job of that.
