job letting terrible whatever
We did a terrible job of letting them get whatever they wanted in the paint. We just did a terrible job defensively for pretty much to whole game.
bus few guys mentally might second simple tough weak
We are so weak mentally and physically. When it comes to the second half, we might as well just get on the bus because our guys don't show up. We're just not tough enough. I think a few of guys in there quit, which is very disappointing to me. And they won't be here, simple as that.
believed destroy exactly last played remember time trying understand
I told them ... 'They remember the last time they played us and they're going to try to destroy us'. I don't think they believed me, but now I think they understand exactly what I was trying to say.
double guys magnitude needed seven step
For a 20-year-old, he really understands the magnitude of these games. We just needed other guys to step up, and we did that with seven guys in double figures.

David will be an integral part of improving our team and helping me get them to the next level.

It's disappointing. This still tells you how young the guys are.

It's big for us. It's too bad the All-Star break is now, I kinda wish we had a game to play tomorrow or Friday.
ball bring count david few good halftime handling heck lost mean west
It was a heck of a win. We lost those two guys, and you know how much they mean to us and how much we count on them to take the ball handling duties. We made some adjustments at halftime and had David West bring it up a few times, as well as Desmond Mason, who did a good job.
nice win
It was nice to just win a game.
good plate
It wasn't a good break. He's got to get a plate in there and everything.
nice problem second starting
It's starting to get better. We still had some lapses in the second half. That's the problem with our young guys. We get a little comfortable when we have a nice little lead.
nice second starting
It's starting to get better. I thought we had some lapses in the second half. We get a little comfortable when we get a nice lead.
base basketball second start team type until using
The base of our team is our athleticism and our quickness. We didn't start using that until the second half. That's the type of basketball we have to play to be successful.
came month
It made all the difference. He would have been a month behind, but he came in every day and made a lot of progress.
