bad coach coaching effort heard leave loss team time
Any time a coach addresses a team after a loss like this, it's disappointing. We've got to leave the coaching to them and the effort is up to us. The bad part is, we've heard this before.
effort felt good guys home protect road team
I felt pretty good out there. It was a good effort by our guys and we will take the win. We really want to protect our home court. We're a pretty good team on the road and it is important for us to protect our court.
definitely effort high playing ways
We definitely are playing better, but still have lapses. We still have a ways to go. As long as we go out with a high effort you never know.
earn foul heck high hopefully respect
In high school, they would foul the heck out of me and there was never a call. But you have to play through it and hopefully one day earn the respect of the refs.
bad ben early glad half hurt mild rhythm second
I just wasn't able to get into rhythm (because of early fouls). I had a lot on my mind. (The mild booing) wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I thought it would be all boos. I'm just glad (fans) cheered when I got up (after being hurt in the second half in a collision with Ben Gordon). If they had booed then I probably would have started crying.
bit granted relief rocky scare stuff time trade
I'm ready, ... It was a little bit of a scare and a rocky summer, but the time to take stuff for granted is over. There's some relief but the journey's not over. I've got to live up to the trade and the expectations.
close deal fact happen hits tough
I'm just saddened by the fact that I know him and it hits close to home, ... It's tough to deal with because it can happen to anyone.
finally huge relief sigh
It was just like a huge sigh of relief to be finally out there again.
definitely great hard love people pushing time
I'm definitely going to love my time here in New York, ... We've got a great team. We have a great coach. Any time you have people like that pushing you to be better, it's hard for you to do otherwise.
bit granted relief rocky scare stuff time trade
I'm ready. It was a little bit of a scare and a rocky summer, but the time to take stuff for granted is over. There's some relief but the journey's not over. I've got to live up to the trade and the expectations.
frustrated happens minutes mostly nobody playing stuff
I just want to play and do think at times I'm on a shorter leash. Sometimes I do think about playing elsewhere, but that's mostly when I'm frustrated and when stuff happens to my minutes and nobody has an explanation for it.
breaking worried
I'm more worried about breaking a finger. I'm not worried about my heart.
carry feeling four kinds last stuff takes three weeks
I've got bruises and scratches and all kinds of stuff. Sometimes they don't go away. I'm still feeling stuff from last year. That's how it is. When you play so many games, things carry over. Normally, after the season, it takes three or four weeks before you're back to feeling normal.
coming definitely everybody main wants
It's definitely frustrating, but it's going to make me better in the long run. Everybody's coming at me from all different angles. But everybody wants me to do well, and that's the main thing.
