apparently julius provoke
Apparently Julius did nothing to provoke this at all.
along player question
No question he's part of our future. A player like that doesn't come along every day.
conclusion jon wants
Jon really has to come to the conclusion that he wants to do this.
court fair few george looks shake team
I think that we want to give Eisley a fair shake here. I think the team and George is comfortable with him. I think they would like to see what he looks like out on the court for a few games.
great season
He's having a great season and, hopefully, it's not going to be too long. We really don't know right now.
whatever
He's a very, very important part of whatever we do. We want Melo with us for a long time.
determined everybody hurt prove
He's going to come back 100 percent. He's hurt right now, but he's determined to come back and prove everybody wrong.
exactly past perceived
Overall, I think that the past incidents, sometimes it's not exactly what it's perceived to be.
helping leave wants
He wants to be helping his team. Let's just leave it at that.
He didn't want us to know. We had to pry it out from different (people).
happened time
He did have a run-in with his coach, and that's something that's unfortunate. It isn't like that's the first time that's happened to anybody.
advice decisions great happens quick rush suggestion
He got a great (recent) MRI report. My suggestion is to see how it goes. That would be my advice. Not to rush back. But not to make any quick decisions and see how it goes. Because you can never tell what happens in a month.
great happen looked
He looked great in pre-season and for something like this to happen really hurts. But he is going to come back.
agents attempt change draft fact free happens majority restricted sure whatever
Whatever happens doesn't change the fact that we want him with us. Many guys, probably the majority (of first-round draft picks), go to being restricted free agents . . . But we're sure going to make the attempt to see if we can get something done.
