The thing about professional sports is anything can happen. Obviously, that vote of confidence along with it being after the trade deadline, means we intend on staying with the guys we got. I think we have 20-plus games remaining, let's try to finish them strong and we'll see what happens from here on out.
Yeah? Which guys wear chains outside of their shirts? No comment. I'm going to let the individuals who choose to fight the rule fight the rule. It is what it is.
Obviously you want to come back and play well. Guys that say they don't like playing against their former teams are definitely lying. So many guys on that bench did so much for my career.
We've got a lot of guys in here that are learning how to win. And when you're learning that on the fly over an 82-game schedule, you're going to have some tough times.
It's frustrating to lose the ballgame, especially when we're giving a valiant effort, ... It's doubly frustrating because of the way I've been playing. The guys are doing what they can to help us win ballgames, and they need me to step up and play the way I'm capable of playing.
They did a good job of denying us and they closed out the game. Guys did their best to get open.
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.
They played this game like it was their championship game, and rightfully so. Those guys are hungry for NBA jobs.
The bottom line is they did a good job of denying our play. Guys were trying to do what they could to get open. ... I heard him say 1-1,000, but I think he forgot the other four.
Guys were giving up good shots to get great shots.
Home is supposed to be where you're most comfortable. A number of guys are not comfortable playing here right now. You have to be emotionally tough to play here.
The guys are doing what they can to help us win ball games and they need me to step up and play the way I'm capable of playing.
We got some good looks at some shots, but they just didn't go down. Had they, we would have put some pressure on their team.
I've never said that I wanted to play for another team. I'm not saying that now,
