This is a part of my game I can improve on. The scoring is easy for me. I'm not really too worried about that. You have to find that balance, and it's not easy. It's something you have to go through. It's experience. You have to get better at it.
I just think guys are playing well. They're starting to execute. Different guys are stepping up each night. Tonight it was Jalen (Rose) and Eddy (Curry). Another time it could be Q (Quentin Richardson) and myself or any combination. We're a deep team. There are going to be a lot of games like tonight where we have seven in double figures.
Games like this can't make the next day come fast enough.
We have lost some games earlier (this season) and guys have taken it to heart and are really working on it.
That was embarrassing. I've never seen a game quite like that. We got behind really fast.
I'm not against it, ... Whatever he feels is going to help us get some wins, I'm willing to do.
I kind of got Chauncey with the crossover early, so I wanted to keep going straight without hesitating, No, no. There was a little contact, but his momentum kind of carried him a little bit.
I kind of got Chauncey with the cross over early. So I wanted to keep going straight without hesitating. My teammates did a great job of setting me up and coach drew up a great play. They did a great job of getting me open and I had the easy part of knocking down the shot.
It was his wife and kids up there. That means more than a game. When your family is in harm's way you're going to think as a human, not an athlete.
I like them. I want to keep wearing them.
Not at all. This year didn't go the way we wanted as far as reaching our goals, but we believe it's short-term.
It's been there. At times we've had it and at times we haven't. But now we're learning how to finish close games. I think that's going to make us better in the long run.
It's an adjustment. But I think in the long run it will help the team, because - like you said - we need somebody that can play both positions coming off the bench.
They've still scored 90 without them, ... We'll take it however we can get it, but 62 is a good job defensively.
