Flip has upped their offense. He has them really confident in what they're running offensively, but they're also one of the best defensive teams in the game.

Anybody that doesn't get a kick out of watching our team play should look in the mirror. It reflects more on them.

The team kept their composure well when we were down.
add changes difficult everybody goes karl latest regardless team time whether
The more time that goes by the more difficult it is. Regardless of whether it's Karl Malone, if we were to make a trade, if we were going to add somebody, I would think you would have to make any changes to your team at the latest by then to give everybody time to integrate.

They're a fine basketball team. Terry has done a great job of coming in and putting in a new system and then having the team respond to it.

Both teams were fantastic. It was a really good win against a very, very good basketball team. We played very, very well. That's the bottom line. We both played well. There were a couple of stretches that were not that great, but it's a 48-minute game and that happens.
both demanding teams
Both teams predicate what they do on defense. They (both) are pretty demanding in that sense.

I?m just thrilled that David ends his career with a game like that. His effort was really wonderful. He really dug down deep and showed how important it was for him to help us get this victory.

I'll be checking minutes more than I've ever checked before, and making sure that people are getting enough playing time. Some nights, that'll be a real tough thing to do.
