both gives
Both of them are physical. Both of them are aggressive. It just gives us a different look.
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.
both contribute expect guys improvement last shown year
I expect both those guys to get opportunities and contribute to the team. And both those guys have shown improvement from last year to this year.
both ends floor fourth glaring good holes mentally quarter team tough win
We're just not a very good team right now. There are a lot of glaring holes at both ends of the floor for us. We are having opportunities to win in the fourth quarter but are not mentally tough enough to get the stops.
basketball biggest both ends glaring good holes team weak
We're just not a very good basketball team right now. To me, we have a lot of glaring holes on both ends of the floor. The biggest thing is that we're so weak mentally.
both developing effective guys post productive stronger summer talked
Realistically, he's not going to play a whole lot at (center), because both those guys have been productive for us. But he's still going to get his chance. The things we talked about this summer were just getting stronger and developing a post game, as well. He's a big guy with a big body, and we want him to be effective down there on the post.
instead minds realize teammate win
The players' minds were on their teammate instead of the game, which is understandable. I thought after a while that (his players) had to realize that we still had to win this game.
guys locker lots room simple
There are lots of guys in that locker room that just quit. It's disappointing to me. They won't be here. It's as simple as that.
best guys home positions
When you don't have one of your best players, sometimes that's what you have to do. You've got to put guys in different positions to see how they react, see how they play. Sometimes you come up with a home run, sometimes you don't.
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.
giving loved
We would have loved to get a big without giving up anybody, but you've got to do what you've got to do.
confident member offensive run san sets team
We run the same offensive sets with Speedy. He was a member of a championship team on San Antonio, so we're very confident in him.
confidence dead finding game ways
We keep finding ways to win. Our confidence is sky-high. You think we're dead in a game and we find a way to win.
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.
