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.
bit
It's a little bit sore. It's going to be that way when I play. It's something I have to get through.
feeling felt
It just felt like we were going through the motions, there wasn't any feeling for the game.
develop division goal instead learn main reaching starting win
It makes you think that we're starting to develop instead of reaching the main goal and that's to win the division and make the playoffs. But at the same time, that's all we got is young players. They've got to learn, and they've got to learn quickly.
defending everybody help
Everybody can play defense. We're just not defending right now. We need to communicate on defense, help each other.
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.
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.
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.
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.
career fans finish front happy hometown love seattle
I would love to finish my career in Houston, to be back in front of the hometown fans and in front of my family. You never know what can happen. I'm happy in Seattle right now. But at the same time, there's no place like home.
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.
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.
defensive took
You can tell they're a better defensive team. They took me out. I couldn't get anything rolling.
