I wish Mike all the best off the court, ... As always, I hope the Spurs lose 82 games.
You never win any games you don't play.
Business is a sport and I want to win. I want to kick your ass. I may not win every game. But I certainly am going to try.
Being rich is a good thing. Not just in the obvious sense of benefitting you and your family, but in the broader sense. Profits are not a zero sum game. The more you make, the more of a financial impact you can have.
There is no question he has accepted the role and is trying to have as big an impact on every game as he possibly can. As he gets more and more comfortable with it, I think his -- and the team's -- play on offense will continue to improve.
I saw him at the All-Star game. He said he's ready to go.
By the way everybody reacted, everybody knew there was a problem except for the official who got pushed. I'm sure the league will take appropriate action after reviewing it. That's a huge play in this game to have a no-call.
I caught Mark doing college games on The Ticket and thought he was great. I made room for him to do radio and he has done so well, T.V. was a natural.
It would be a little hypocritical of me. I don't care how they dress. I do care how they act.
The template for success in the NBA changed from the Portland model of 1999-2000, when I got to the league, to the Detroit, San Antonio, Miami model. Although we have succeeded on the court to the point of five straight 50-plus win seasons, we certainly didn't do it 'the best way.' We did it the most expensive way. It cost us flexibility and created lots of bad habits. That was my mistake, and it ended up costing us Mike (Finley).
Broadcast.com continues to prove that Internet broadcasting is the new medium for companies to interact with consumers, collect valuable customer data, and ultimately drive sales to their products.
The system allows us to look at every play, in every way, and to tie it back to stats. So, we can watch how we played every pick and roll, track our success rate and also see how other teams are doing it. It's an invaluable resource that makes us smarter when combined with a lot of advanced statistical analysis we do.
Digital projection means that any type of event can be broadcast live or from DVD. That increases options considerably.
We are very happy with the results so far of this first day-and-date release, and while theatrical performance was not as high as we would have liked, it compared favorably to other similar films released this weekend.
