awful came game prepared
It was just an awful game for us. They came prepared and we didn't, and that's the coach's fault.
biggest dame games wisconsin
Notre Dame and Wisconsin were the two biggest games when I was in college,
keeping
It's not about who we play, but about keeping up the tradition, about maintaining the streak.
ball beat eventually game knew michael tried
If you give Michael Redd a chance, he'll beat you, even on an off night. We tried to take the ball out of his hands. We knew that eventually he would take the game over.
drive guy stared
He stared at me every freaking timeout. And I told our coaches, 'We've got to put this guy in or he's going to drive me nuts.' Honestly, that's why I put him in.
basically body couple engaged good half language mark season summer system talked
He's just been engaged. We've been engaged with him. Mark and I, we've had a couple of good conversations this summer one right before the season started. We basically talked about a lot of things. I told him on my half I will just try to communicate better, but on his half the body language and all the other things have to be better. And if we were in a grading system he'd be an A-plus.
deserved stretch ton win
I don't know if we actually deserved to win. But I did think we had just a ton of opportunities down the stretch to win that game.
favor given miami size speed trouble win
Chicago's speed and their pick-and-roll has given Miami trouble in the past. At the end of the day though, size will win out and that will favor Miami.
al betting joke man wife woman
If I was a betting man .... You can't even joke about that any more. If my wife was a betting woman ... I'd say Al would be back first.
fans figured
I figured the fans were here. Give them something.
believe good throw
He's young. Don't throw him out there too early. It's going to take him some time, and he's going to be a good player. I believe that.
affect good worried
He's worried that it'll affect his knee. He said he didn't feel good at all out there.
minutes putting time understand
I do understand putting them all in at the same time is dangerous. I don't really care. I'm still going to do it right now. I think they need to get out there and play minutes so I'm going to keep doing it.
liked
I don't think he liked it. But he didn't squawk about it, either. And I think he understands that when he comes off the bench, it makes us a better team. We need him there.
