bottom challenge coaching collective guys last line personal players season staff talking
Bottom line is, we've got better players and a better coaching staff this season. We need to take it as a personal and collective challenge to be better than we were last season and from the guys I've been talking to this summer, I think we are going to do that.

Obviously, drafts sometimes are good ones, or bad ones; I think you can get a good, quality player late in the lottery.
player excellence black
I know most of the black players who preceded and followed me at Duke. They all contribute to our tradition of excellence on the court.

I wish I had the answer but I don't. We've got to continue to try to play hard and work through it and try to figure out what we can do to improve that.

I'm hesitant to say this thing's behind me, but I have a better understanding of it.
brings definitely good knowledge wealth work
He's a good man. It didn't work out. But he definitely brings a wealth of knowledge to (Minnesota's) organization.
tried
I would probably say yes. I don't see getting another surgery. We tried it. It didn't work. I don't see doing another.
guess plan
I feel good. It'll be my first-back-to-back? I guess that's right. I plan on playing.
nature
Even with medicine, you can do everything right and something can happen. That's just the nature of it.
