chance forward giving great hard himself playing power summer
The thing I always harped about is that he didn't play hard enough. The one thing I told him this summer is that he can be a great power forward because of his skills. But he wasn't giving himself a chance because of not playing hard.
bunch great guys hungry leave situation
I wanted to be in a different situation. I think I'm in a great situation right now. I've got a young team, a bunch of young guys that are hungry and that want to play, so I just leave it that way.
great hit kobe players
Great players make great plays. Kobe hit some big shots.
against good great jersey record second third
I don't know what our record is going against him. I know in Jersey my second and third years, we had a good team. But that doesn't matter. He's still a great coach.
close doubt great superstar
I was going to say he's going to be a great player. But I think he's pretty close to that already. He's going to be a superstar in this league. There's no doubt about that.
bring energy establish game great guys type
We want to establish some type of a home-court advantage. We've got a great crowd, so we've got to bring an energy and a physicality to the game that we haven't been bringing, and all our guys know that right now.
fun great growing guys pains teaching time tough trying understand
It's been a fun first half. It's been tough at times. You go through growing pains (being) so young. For the most part, I've had a great time teaching these guys and trying to make them understand how this game, in my mind, should be played, and they're doing a great job.
blocking came great heck job quarter second space taking
Deke came in the second quarter and did a heck of a job. He was doing a great job of blocking shots, taking up space and that?s what we needed.
great might nights prove superstar
I said he would be a great player. I think he might be that already. Nights like this prove he is going to be a superstar in this league.
great wild
I think it's going to be wild and crazy. It's going to be fun. It's going to be a great atmosphere.
great players shots
He made all the big shots at the end. That's what great players do.
came double great knew needed obviously sooner tonight triple
He's just a great little player. He's got a lot of heart. We knew the triple double would come sooner than later, but obviously tonight we really needed it. I thought he really came through big time.
call days five next passing practice wishing
We just stunk. We got tentative, we were passing up shots. It's what we call just getting tight. The next five days of practice are going to be hell. By the end, they're going to be wishing they had a game.
defensive resistance team trade
We just had no resistance on the defensive end tonight. You can't trade baskets or think that you are going to outscore a team like the Wizards.
