brand came elton good guys hand hangover harder hot played pleased road rode second
I wasn't pleased with the way we started tonight. I don't know if it was a hangover from the road trip, but in the second half, the guys came out and played much harder and did a good job. We had a hot hand with Elton Brand and we just rode it.

We're better than we've been since I've been here, but we're also more disappointed, because we have the talent to be over .500. You just have to stick with it and fight through it. Who knows how good this team can be or where we'll finish up?

I think I'm coming along well, ... I got off to a rocky start early on. There were a lot of expectations, and they already had a bunch of players at my position. Through that, I've persevered, and I'm well on my way. I'm pleased with where I'm at and where I'm headed.
bench bit bring fire starting
I thought I could bring something different to the table. Having that firepower off the bench is great. We're starting to get our fire back and getting a little bit of an identity.
