coming guys
We've always said we need more than me and Ray. When we get other guys coming on like that, it makes things so much easier.
behind knew open score shots teammates
When you see one of your teammates go out like that, especially an All-Star player, we are behind him all the way. When he was ejected, I knew I would have to be a lot more aggressive. I was going to have to give myself shots and get my teammates open shots. I knew I was going to have to score a lot.
against game gave good last orlando washington
We didn't have our legs. It should have been 4-1. I thought we gave the game away against Orlando last night, but Washington is a good team.
came contract guys instead playing situation team themselves time worried
That's where things started wrong. Guys came in here worried about themselves instead of the team. And it never got better. Guys were worried about playing time because of their contract situation and never got into the team concept. You could see it in guys' faces.
fortunate playing win
The way we're playing right now, we'll be fortunate to win another game.
bad basket efficient jump knocking playing short taking
He's been playing well this year. He's been taking it to the basket and he's not taking bad shots. He's been more efficient and he's knocking down that short jump shot.
hot miss shots start
He got hot and when his shots start to fall, he's not going to miss many.
hanging honestly last leave night team
I honestly thought about it (not playing) last night and all day today, but I didn't want to leave my team hanging like that. I just wanted to give some kind of effort, to let them know I'm still with them.
building chemistry good heading looking next outside playing quit season shows though together toward
This is a very big win. Even though it's at the end of the season and we are on the outside looking in, we are still playing together and it shows you there is no quit in this team. I think we are building good chemistry heading toward next season.
difference enjoy season wants
I don't think any of us wants the season to end right now. Where am I going on vacation? I had no idea. I haven't even thought of that. I think we enjoy being together, and that's the difference between then and now.
again excited fans good
I'm excited again and I think the fans are too. I don't know if you can put that on Earl, but it's good to have him.
knew open step teammates
I knew I was going to have to be a lot more aggressive. If not getting myself shots, but getting my teammates open shots. I knew I had to step up big.
change wait
A lot could change tomorrow. We'll just have to wait and see.
contract deal last looking pay type willing
The type of contract I'm looking for - I feel like this is my last really big deal - I don't know if they'll be willing to pay that.
