They did a good job of denying us and they closed out the game. Guys did their best to get open.
When you're 0-4, things just aren't going your way. We're just not getting it done, our record indicates that, and I'm not going to make any excuses for it.
There are millions of young African Americans around the country who want to get an education, raise a family, and be successful in the business world, but they need some guidance on critical issues such as how to pay for student loans, manage their finances, or buy a home. We as a community must communicate with young adults so they can be armed with the information they'll need to make solid decisions that will allow them to get a good education, save money, and raise a family in the complicated world we live in today.
Yeah, I can play a little bit. Somebody put a memo on my locker, saying I'll be 33 this month, so i figure I had to step my game up.
We're not talking about just anybody. We're talking about Kobe. He's had 40, 50, 60 and 80 this year. So it's not the first time he's gone off on a team.
We are not getting it down. It's an embarrassment. We lost by 30 points at home.
When you're not winning games ... it's about how you're not getting it done. To the winner goes the spoils, and since we're not getting it done at a high level, it's always going to be about sideshows and distractions.
We gave them way too many fast-break points and that was the difference in the game. The bottom line is we just didn't get it done.
A lot of guys contributed. Jamal made a huge shot at the end of the game. We didn't get down. A lot of times when things don't go your way and you only have 19 wins or so on the season, you tend to get discouraged.
A lot of times when you're down and you have an overall record like we have, it's easy to look up at the score and say 'here we go again. We pulled together, we persevered, and obviously were not going to take is as more than one game, but it does feel good to get a win on the road.
They played this game like it was their championship game, and rightfully so. Those guys are hungry for NBA jobs.
They got on me real good about that. Real good.
Ask any athlete - One of his dreams is to play in New York wearing a Knick uniform. It's also always been a dream of mine.
That's what they do. They lead the league in 3-point attempts for a reason, and sometimes they are going to knock them down.
