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.

We didn't have Steve Francis with us in practice, and that's going to impact us. We missed a lot of good shots. We had a bad beginning and a horrible third quarter.

We played pretty darn good after All-Star break. We were about .500 and we set up a culture that enabled us to be pretty good from then on. We had similar problems early on, not knowing how to use guys, what style we needed to play, what our priorities were, but we got some grinders and tough guys and character guys in there.
