foul game gets longer shape stays trouble
When he gets into a little better shape and stays out of foul trouble, he'll stay in the game for longer stretches.
ball care lead league playoff points team telling trouble turned
I think if you look at the M.O. of this team all year, we have had trouble making stops. We have turned the ball over, we lead the league in turnovers, points of turnovers, and assist-to-turnovers. I keep telling them if you want to play playoff basketball, you've got to take care of the ball and execute. We don't get it and we have to keep working on it.
against almost front good guard job keeping people plays script trouble
We can't guard anybody. We don't do a good job of getting back. We have trouble keeping people in front and it's almost like people script plays against us.
chance stopping trouble
We just had trouble stopping them from scoring. I don't even think we had a chance to put them away.
home trouble
Antonio would be in a lot more trouble if he went home and hadn't done anything.
few lead league points press trouble
We lead the league in turnovers. Did you see them press on us? It's every game. We have few assists and a lot of turnovers. As much as we have trouble as we have guarding people, to give up 30 points on turnovers, it's even more difficult.
ball defense early foul interior second shooting talk team trouble turning
We can talk all we want, but if the team is shooting 65% and we're turning the ball over and we get in early foul trouble you can't make it a high-possession game. The second half, we didn't make it a high-possession game. We don't have the interior defense right now if we do get beat. We can't play like them.
home trouble
He'd be in a lot more trouble when he got at home if he didn't do what he did.
amazed david home jackson night restraint situation stern trouble
I'm amazed at the restraint (Davis) had. I'd like to put Stu Jackson or (NBA commissioner) David Stern in that situation and see how they'd react. He'd have been in a lot more trouble if he went home that night and hadn't done anything.
coming starting team trouble
I'd have trouble coming up with a starting team some games. Where are you going to get your offense?
cooked decided department fire raise ton
We've always cooked at the fire department to raise funds. We've probably cooked up a ton of barbecue. We decided let's do it competitively, and here we are,
against coach college dream felt finals smith
When I was a college coach, my dream was to play against Coach Smith in the finals of the NCAA. I always felt it would be a win-win, and I could probably say the same thing for (playing against) Pop.
beginning bit hopefully next ready shut week worry
We're going to shut him down a little bit. Hopefully, he'll be back at the beginning of next week and we'll know a little bit more. Hopefully he'll be ready to play. If not we'll worry about that then.
grew proud
We grew up a lot. I'm proud of the way they played.
