bit game gym name next ready surprised timing worked
I was surprised I didn't get tired. I worked pretty hard. Other than that, my timing was just a bit off. I have to get back into the gym and get that back. The next game is Tuesday, so I have to be ready to go when my name is called.
breaks name playing ready root team whenever win
I'm a little upset, yeah. You're used to playing and then you don't, it breaks your routine. Other than that, you have to root for your team to win and be ready whenever your name is called.
bad couple fortunate foul lucky offensive paint shut though three trouble
We were fortunate that Shaq got into foul trouble. It was nothing we did as a team, even though we shut the paint down a little bit. Shaq got three offensive fouls and a couple were bad calls, so we got lucky on that.
call kept putting rather start talking
It was a wake-up call for us. We kept putting things to the side, saying, 'We're going to do this, we're going to do this.' But we actually had to start doing it rather than talking about it.
open playing positive
It's tough, but it's also a positive. It is positive because I can sit, watch, and learn. Offensively and defensively you see a lot things that are open that you don't see on the floor. I'm just not playing well on defense.
ready shot threw
He had to take a shot that he wasn't ready for because I threw it at his feet.
basically giving hard minute practice team trying wants
He wants nothing but the hardest. If you're not giving your all, he's not going to be happy. That's basically what our team is trying to do. The minute you are out there you have to go hard and we practice that every day.
position
I just never put myself in position -- I'm always late.
best bill chance footage seen
I never got a chance to see (Wilt Chamberlain or Bill Russell), but from the (television) footage I've seen and what I've seen now, I think Shaq is probably the best of all time.
last ready
A must-win for us. We've got to come out ready to play and play like it's our last game.
