bother days feet hearing hit imagine next price punching sitting somebody tall tough
It was tough for me sitting next to him and hearing (the fans), so, I can imagine what it was like for him. It's like somebody two feet tall just punching you and punching you, and you can't hit them back. It's so frustrating, but Al never let it bother him. Some days were better than others, but he never complained about it. It was just the price of fame.
close correct hard help hope locker next playing room talent tired together weapons winning
It's frustrating to lose. You just get tired of it. I don't like it at all. I hope we can correct it next year. We have a lot of talent in this locker room and a lot of weapons that can help us win, but we didn't come close to playing together or playing as a unit. That's what made winning very hard in my estimation...We didn't play together all year.
hoping joking laughing next people
There were people laughing at us and joking on us out there on the court. I'm the kind of person, I want a little payback. So I'm hoping I'm here next year.

It means nobody's guaranteed to be here next season.
carries experience listened playing practicing rings
I had the experience, the championship rings or whatever, and they listened to me, but that only got me so far. Now that I'm playing and actually practicing what I preach, it carries a little more weight.

I'll be scratching my head minutes down the road as to what happened. But it's over, and thank God I made it through.

It was like hitting your funny bone, ... I lost feeling in both arms for a minute.
matter plays time
It's a matter of making one or two more plays be it offensively or defensively, most of the time defensively.
cover defense defensive everybody looked mistakes pace several team trying
It looked like a different team on the defensive end. We made several mistakes, but we were trying to cover for one another, everybody was moving. It was a frenetic pace on defense and that's where we need to be.
blown chance competing controlled game learn losing majority ourselves putting step types win
It's real tough, losing a game that you controlled the majority of. But I always try to look at the positive. At least we're not getting blown out now. We're competing and putting ourselves in a chance to win games. We just have to take that all-important step and learn how to win those types of games.
beating check definitely equipped heart inside legs shirts sustain takes team
You got two legs and two feet, a beating heart and a brain, you're equipped to play defense. I think this team definitely has what it takes to play defense. We just have to check what's inside our shirts to see if we're going to sustain that.
chance good motivation quit today
There's motivation there. All we can say is we didn't quit today and there's a good chance we'll see each other in the lottery, too.
argue handle mainly plenty says yelled
I've been yelled at plenty of times so I know how to handle it. I mainly keep quiet. You can't argue back. With him, when he says something, you can't say, 'Well I was doing this.' You just have to take it.
guys playing worried
I've been playing guys like that all my life. I'm not worried about that.
