changed guys minutes playing proud
There are some things we could have done better, I think, that could have changed the result. Our guys are competitive and are playing a lot more minutes than they probably should. There's a lot of things that we can be proud of.
crushed good half marginal offensive points poor position team
We're a team that does ... just enough to put yourself in a position and not enough good to win. That was poor defense, poor, poor defense. They scored 49 points in a half with very marginal offensive players. When they missed, they crushed us on the boards.
effort guard help maybe quickness recover truly
We're at a quickness disadvantage, so it makes it look like an effort thing when it truly is a quickness thing. On defense, we do maybe one thing, 1 1/2 things, but we can't help and recover and then guard the ball. They went by us the whole night.
gives hard pause pit team wants
We didn't try hard enough. It gives you pause to think what do we really have here? We should've been frothing at the mouth, like pit bulls. I so much want to have a team that really, really, really wants to play every day, every night.
defense gives hard hoped league multiple pause watched
We didn't try hard enough. Defense in this league is about making multiple efforts, going from one thing to the next. We stood, watched and hoped that he (Cook) would miss. It gives you pause to think what do we really have here. What do we really have?
helped proud teams
I think he should be very, very proud of what he accomplished in his career, because he helped a lot of teams overachieve because of his toughness,
best center guys nba season
I think he is the best regular-season center in the NBA now. Some other guys may play better in the playoffs, but he's the best during the season because he comes to play every night.
depends hope keeps
It depends on who the one is. We hope he keeps improving.
depends
It depends on what you want to do. If that's your focus, you can do it.
les luxury mistakes salary situations tax
I think Les has even said it. The luxury tax is our salary cap. The thing that's different in the situations is that you can't make mistakes in our situation with who you sign.
aggressive assertive percentage shoot shots win
I thought (McGrady) was doing that right before he was hurt, being very aggressive and assertive but more efficient, and getting Yao more shots so that we can shoot a percentage that can win in this league.
absolute best definitely disgrace flop guy sick stand watching
Reggie Evans would definitely get best actor in the league. I am so sick of watching that guy flop I can't stand it. It is an absolute disgrace what he does.
bit good impact playing three
Part is schedule. Part is health. Part is good play. I think all three of those things have had an impact on playing a little bit better. But this is a whole different level, this (Suns) team. This is upper-echelon, top-five team.
bench came gave good played
I thought our bench played substandard. We had a good start, and then our bench came in and gave up the lead.
