comment emphasis happy point
I'm not going to comment any more. That's not my point of emphasis right now. I'm just happy he was back.
active commenting players talking
I'm not commenting on Jerome. He's not on the active list. I'm talking about active players right now.
comments good love
I love Tony. He's a good friend. I'm not going to make any comments on what he said. That's not my place.
anyone comments conference enjoyed listen loved parts people philly playing press
I listen to some of the comments on WIP - they're playing parts of the press conference - and I can see where people would read into things. But if anyone was at the press conference, I think would sense how much I enjoyed Philly and how I loved working for those people.
commented hard
Even a ref commented to me how hard they were trying.
bad body commented good love numerous rarely smile watched
I've watched him forever. I very rarely see him smile or get excited. I'd love to see that. I don't know if that's his nature. I've commented to him numerous times that when things are going bad we have to have him with good body language.
carries commented effort hard leaders nice tony
One of the refs commented to me how hard they were trying. That's nice to hear. Tony Davis' effort was phenomenal. Leaders do that, and it carries over.
commented hard
One of the referees even commented to me about how hard they were trying.
build comment further great happy hard hopefully practice worked
Nah, that had nothing to do with it. I'm not going to comment any further on it. I'm just happy he worked hard and, you know, he had a great practice today. Hopefully we'll build on that.
fun loved played shared trying watch
I loved the effort. We shared the ball, and it was more fun to watch with them trying like they did. We played hard, and we played unselfishly. I thought we were ready.
game loved people tried
I loved the way he was aggressive, ... I loved the way he tried to get other people involved. I loved the way he tried to guard. I told the people before the game he would play great.
caught coaching expected games hope people race trying won
I never expected this. But again, I don't get caught up in records. It's disappointing, obviously, that we've only won 19 games and we're not in the race for the playoffs, but the only thing you can keep doing is trying to get better, keep coaching and hope that people understand.
struggled sure teams
I'm sure I've been 0-3 a lot, ... And most of my teams have struggled early.
audition guys stuff
I know what we have. You guys know what we have. There's no audition. That audition stuff has been over a long time.
