gets
When he gets it going like that, I don't know what you can do.
gets hate missed quarter quick row run shot six worse
I thought that was the difference. We missed a quick shot then he made six in a row and that gets it to nine. You hate them making a run at the end of a quarter because you have to sub and it just gets worse from there.
classy gets human team tony tough
Tony Dungy is as classy a human being as you will ever know. This is a tough one. I don't know how a team gets through that, to be honest.
benefit beyond chance consistent gets gives happens obvious playing situations
Beyond the obvious benefit of playing time, it gives us the chance to see where he's at. It will be interesting to see what happens when he gets the consistent minutes. I want to try and fit him into as many situations as possible.
amazing anybody gets guy score
It really was awesome. I didn't think anybody could score 81 points. And he didn't play well in the first half. The amazing part was he didn't get tired. That guy never gets tired.
entire freedom gets whether worrying
You've got to coach worrying about your entire team: whether that gets you a championship or whether that gets you fired. I think it allows you to coach free. You're coaching with freedom because you know you're doing what you think is right.
ask choose gets player standing
The thing a player has to ask himself: 'Do you want to choose winning over standing out?' Dwyane Wade made that choice, and I don't think he gets enough credit.
bad ballot dirty excellent gets good guy nights points putting wants willing
I thought about getting my All-Star ballot back and putting Jake on it. He's not going to be a guy who gets you 30 points a night, but every night, he's willing to do the dirty stuff. He wants to bang. He's going to have good nights and bad nights, but he's an excellent guy to have on your team.
best calm featured game gets good guy job letting plays quality videotape watching
He's not going to be a guy that will be featured on ESPN, but he may be a guy that is featured on our videotape when we're watching film as a team. To me, that's always more important. He does a lot of things well and he does them the right way. His best quality is that he plays with a calm and he gets the job done. He's so good at letting the game come to him.
everybody great job pitch
With Wally going out, everybody had to just pitch in. Everyone did a great job of it.
close pierce reason
Pierce is one big reason for (winning close games) and Gomes has been on an unbelievable roll.
execution fights-and-fighting kept proud teach using
I was happy. I was proud of our young guys. They just kept fighting. I was using it to teach execution to young guys.
aggressor fell heels
It fell apart. They attacked. I thought they were the aggressor and I thought we went back on our heels a little bit.
becoming continuing focus people team win
I think Paul's team play enabled us to win on this trip. He's been great. I think people will focus on his scoring, but he's done so many other things. We are continuing to improve. We are becoming a team.
