basketball iq
I thought our basketball IQ at the end of the game, up 11, could have been a lot better.
best guys playing realize win
We realize they weren't playing their best guys out there at the end. But you feel a lot better about yourself when you win than when you lose.
best playing realized
We realized they weren't playing their best guys.
ready small team
We're a little small right now, and we may not have as much firepower as some teams, but our team for the most part comes ready to play, ready to practice. You get their best.
gone happy ready schedule small team tough
We're a little small right now and may not have as much firepower as some teams, but for the most part we come ready to play. We've had a tough schedule and I am happy with how the team has gone about business.
areas handling inferior shot
We put nothing into the game. It was not just effort. Shot making, handling the ball, discipline, quickness, we were inferior in all those areas tonight. When you put very little into the game, you get very little out of the game.
hard
We put nothing into the game. Give them all the credit. I said this before the game, I never see them play anything but well. They come out and play hard every night.
jumping played
We played a very soft, non-contact game. We had Wilcox jumping over us the whole game.
air badly balls miss nba poor range rectify seen shooting team
We have to rectify so many things on offense. We're a high-turnover team now, which is No. 1. Secondly, we're a very poor shooting team from all areas, from 2-point range, 3-point range and the free-throw line. We shoot more air balls now on the perimeter than any team ? I've never seen any NBA team miss as badly as we do.
goes himself history sat takes
Well, it's been my history with him when he goes out of the game, he's sat out in the past. I don't think he takes himself out lightly.
block drives game jumping nobody played putting soft taking
We played very soft, a non-contact game. We had Wilcox jumping over us the whole game with no block out, drives with nobody putting a body in front, taking soft fouls and unnecessary fouls. I was just very disappointed.
point true
When he (Alston) was not healthy, or out for a while, and we were without a true point guard, we were much more plodding. We want to be up the floor, which is what he does best.
mental physical team
We didn't play well and we didn't have the personality on our team of mental or physical toughness.
chances
We can still win. Obviously, your chances are better when you have your better players.
