anywhere calling damage either heck hope hoping played player plays sidelines takes uniform
Either he's going to be in uniform doing some damage or he's going to be on the sidelines calling out our plays like he did when we played them in the preseason, ... I'm hoping that he's not anywhere to be seen. He's a heck of a player and I hope that he takes another day off.
ability ball bring calling eight force instead jump minutes nine playing power score step
There are times, when if you're playing well, let's just play well from the jump ball instead of playing well eight or nine minutes into the quarter. I think it's a calling right now for him to step up and bring what we need -- a little more force and power and the ability to score in the post.
adversity against bad bit call competing defense deserved distracted good whether
We were not competing in the paint, and we are getting distracted a little bit by what's going on out on the floor, not getting through a little bit of adversity whether you think it's a bad call or good defense against you. But for the most part they just outplayed us, and they deserved to win.
call loosen
That?s all we said: Just loosen up, go out and have some fun, I?m not going to call plays.
adversity against calls competing continued deal defense distracted good learn missed paint physical plague played poor second
They just outplayed us in the second half. They were more physical than us in the paint and the same things continued to plague us - poor third-quarter performance, not competing in the paint, and being distracted by what's going on at the other end of the court. We have to learn to deal with adversity and not be distracted by missed calls or good defense being played against us.
calls came distracted energy felt game half lost second
You've got to give them (Memphis) credit. They came back with a lot more energy in the second half and they got the juice. I felt we were distracted by some of the officials' calls and we lost our focus. That was the part of the game I was disappointed in.
games second start winning
We just want to go out and play the way that we did in the second quarter. We need to start winning these games on the road.
defensive establish showing takes willing
We just wanted to establish a defensive mind-set. We're showing each other that we're willing to do anything it takes to get better and to win.
five last normal poor
We just had some poor possessions offensively down the stretch. The last four, five possessions, we didn't have to make a big play, we just had to make normal plays, and we didn't come up with it.
energy knew maintain run
We withstood their run and all the energy in the building. We knew we had to maintain our composure.
hard resilient tough
We're going through some hard times. Let's see how tough and resilient we are.
chaos evidence hurricane inside looked rooms
The rooms are in chaos, ... It looked like a hurricane had been inside the evidence room. The stench was overwhelming.
cost outcome pleased savings serious wants
It was very positive. Really, we were all very united. Everyone wants to see serious cost savings over the future. I was enormously pleased at the outcome because it was all so one-sided.
effort found looked mud stuck
It was another really gutsy effort from our guys. We looked like we were stuck in the mud but we found a way.
