cost last minutes seemed team three time
It seemed like every quarter, the last to or three minutes is what cost us. That team is a championship team. They seemed to buckle down at that time and get stops. And they get buckets on the other end.
cost everybody hopefully learn love slight took
He still has a love for the game. He just took a slight detour, and it cost him. Everybody makes mistakes, and he'll hopefully learn from this and be able to get back.
broken guess rest
I know that it's broken in two places. I would guess that he's done for the rest of the season. It's a big blow.
aggressive defensive extremely good knew
I knew he was extremely aggressive on the defensive end, and has a very good defensive head.
behind changed closed coaches doors goals knew obviously talking win
I knew that we could win 35. But behind closed doors when I'm talking to the coaches and talking to the players, our goals are a lot higher, and obviously we've changed our goals.
marvel
I kind of marvel at the young man.
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.

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.
defensive front good guys job lack mentality
It was just a lack of defensive mentality tonight. We didn't do a good job keep guys in front of us.
ford home loud
It was great. It was a lot like home at the Ford Center. When we had our little lulls, they were loud and got us back into it.
coach deal next stuff type wants
It was just too many things going on player-wise that I didn't like that I wasn't going to be able to deal with the next year. So I wasn't going to put myself in the situation. No coach wants to go through that type of stuff when you have mutiny.

After we drafted Chris Paul, it became obvious that Dan would look to sign elsewhere in order to have a chance to compete for a starting point guard job,
became best chance chris compete dan drafted earned elsewhere gives guard last losing luck obvious order point prevents sign starting trade wish
After we drafted Chris Paul, it became obvious that Dan would look to sign elsewhere in order to have a chance to compete for a starting point guard job, ... Making this trade gives Dan that chance, which he earned by what he did for us last season, and it also prevents us from losing him without compensation. We wish him the best of luck in Boston.
