anybody chance ourselves pride wants win
If they play like this, we'll give ourselves a chance to win some games. I think that's all anybody in New York's asking, that's all Isiah wants and that's all I want. Just try to have some pride in the way we play.
anybody game last looked night
When you don't have anything to play for, you find out a lot about character. The last two games, obviously, were really disappointing in a lot of ways. I looked at the end of the game last night and I didn't see anybody quitting.
anybody figured frustrated year
When you don't have anything to play for, you find out a lot about character. Anybody who is not frustrated with what's going on this year is not being real. I think we all are frustrated. The only thing I've ever figured out is you have to try harder.
anybody blame blames concerned man
That is a man concerned about his family...I don't blame him and I don't think anybody blames him.
anybody game hate
It was the kind of game where you hate to see anybody lose.
anybody change expect happy leave saw worry worst
You want me to leave him under the bus? Yeah, I saw the play and I saw it on the film. I'm not happy about it. It's not what you . . . you can't expect anybody to do that. But that's over. The worst thing I can do is worry about what happened. We've got to think about what we can do to change and get better.
anybody blame blames defend worried
I was worried about Kendra. Antonio told me that's why he went into the stands, to defend his wife. ... We could have used him out there (on the floor). I don't blame him, though, and I don't think anybody blames him.

I admire and respect him, but I have that feeling for anybody that sits down at that end. But you realize what he's done and that's pretty special.
anybody blame blames concerned entirely falling flailing man saw tony worried
That's entirely different. He was worried about his wife, Kendra, that's why Tony went into the stands. He said he saw her falling back and someone flailing at her. That's a man concerned about his family. I don't blame him. I don't think anybody blames him.
anybody bad felt happened locker mean
I don't mean this in a bad way. I never felt comfortable.... it's only happened to me once before where anybody had to come in the locker room.
anybody best career conference effect eric finals free given guard nba outcome point rein surely workman
If you're the best player, surely you're going to have some effect on the outcome of a game. And I've said this from Day 1: I've never given anybody in my career more free rein in my career. And I went to the conference finals (in Indiana) with Haywood Workman as a point guard. With Eric Snow, who was the fourth-string point guard in Seattle. He went to the NBA Finals (with Philadelphia).
advantages against athletic caught playing score team tried
We tried to score too fast. Against an athletic team like them, that's tough. I thought we had advantages if we could go inside, but we just got caught up playing their tempo.
