atmosphere best chemistry couple definitely good guys kevin pieces players point team teams together
Me as a point guard, I want to try and put all those pieces together and make a good atmosphere and team chemistry and try to make all those players better players, ... With Wally, with Kevin (Garnett), with a couple young guys we've got, we're definitely one of the best teams in the West.
both defense effective hustle legs might offense point sides trying
We might have some lags in the offense because we are trying to really hustle on defense, ... I know we're going to get to that point where our legs are going to come back and we're going to be effective on both sides of the court.
career dye early played
I used to dye my hair different colors and have crazy periods, especially early in my career when I played in Italy.
best definitely five less players playoff quality race recipe teams
There's no recipe for winning. I can tell you right now five teams that are in the playoff race that have definitely less quality (players) than we do. But you know what? They have chemistry. It's not only about having the 10 best players in the league. It's about having chemistry. That's what we couldn't find this season.
That's the point; I don't even know what to expect.
everybody greek likes past percent sure team works
Of course, there's no one team that everybody likes each other 100 percent and that everything works 100 percent. Even in the Greek team that won, I am sure that there's some things that didn't work. In the past when things don't work, these things come out.

I have become a subscriber for 'Business Week.' It teaches me a lot about business, and I have really started to get into it. I'm interested in business and learning about how everything works.
anytime ball drop fault missed open shot tried
The play was to drop the ball to Kevin, but they overplayed, so we tried to play pick-and-roll. I had a wide-open shot for the lead; I missed it. That's my fault right there, but there's nothing I can do about it now. Anytime I have an open shot like that, I'll take it.
both europe exists routine tasty three
There is something that has become part of my routine that I eat two or three times a week. Sushi. It exists in Europe but isn't very popular, and especially in L.A., I started eating it. It's both tasty and healthy.
chances last playoff race soon wake
This (road trip) is one of the last chances for us to get in the playoff race. We need to wake up as soon as possible.
apart coming emotional frustrated happened happens hard hate knew locker newspapers normal people torn words
We are emotional players, there were a lot of hard words said. We were very disappointed and it's normal that this happens in the locker room, and not because we hate each other; only we were just frustrated with what happened and we knew that we were going to be torn apart by the newspapers and by the people in the coming days.
crisis pull talk
It's not the way to talk to and pull yourself from the crisis,
dream exhausting fans five game lost people realize team teams tough win
It's tough, we lost the game and (the fans) were very, very tough on us, ... Because we were like a dream team 10 years ago, much better than other teams five or 10 years ago, the fans are used to winning. Now, people in Serbia and Montenegro can't realize why we don't win so easy. ... Mentally, it was exhausting though.
coming excited love miami playing somewhere
It's exciting. I love to play Miami on New Year's. Why not? It's better than playing somewhere else. I'm going to have a lot of friends coming to the game. I think we're all excited for the game.
