career definitely guys healthy nice sacrifice season staying win worked
At this point, not a lot of guys in their career win 50 games, so that's always a plus. But staying healthy is definitely more important. It would be nice to get it done, but you don't want to sacrifice what we've worked all season for.

basketball care game lose mean move nature supposed whether win
Whether you win by 30 or lose by two you just have to move on. What we did in Game 1 really doesn't mean anything if we come out and don't take care of what we are supposed to take care of in Game 2. That's pretty much the nature of it.

advance basically basketball cleveland coming deciding hold next opportunity pieces putting together trying washington win
Cleveland, I felt, had an opportunity to take it to the next level. I feel like coming to Cleveland from Washington, Cleveland's basically in the same place Washington is. That really was the deciding factor. I didn't want to go to an organization that was trying to hold things together to just win basketball games. Here, we're putting pieces together so we can advance to the playoffs.
career confidence great guys season staff team time top win wins
Not a lot of guys in their career win 50 games. It's a new team and a new staff from top to bottom. To come in and put up 50 wins in a season I think that's a great confidence booster for the time that everyone is here.

Every season I want to play 82 games. That's my goal, and obviously that's not going to happen this year. I have to deal with it. I have to make the best from it.
