It's hard to really judge (the Spurs) because I don't think we gave them much of a challenge. They played their game and beat us. And that's all there was to it.
I thought as the game went on we wore down a little bit. I don't want to blame anything, they just beat us down the stretch. In the fourth quarter is where the game is won or lost.
I thought we didn't create rhythm offensively. And we played really tough defense on the strong side all night long, but you can't beat this team playing that way. Just playing strong defense on that side.
They just beat us down the stretch. In the fourth quarter is where the game is won or lost. I thought we missed a lot of easy shots.
It was Chinese music. I couldnt understand it, but it had a good beat to it.
The Hornets were out-hustling us to every ball. I wont say that we were slow; we were just getting beat on each possession. The team that comes out and plays hard every night is the team that is going to win regardless of what their records are.
The shots were there for me tonight. It was a fun game to play because it went back and forth.
People decide if they want to be led, they'll be led. If they decide they don't want to be part of the system, they'll buck it.
Everything has been very amicable. There just hasn't been any movement, and movement is me signing a contract.
Everything's blurry on the right side. The light getting in it aggravates it.
The teams that do the best job of putting personal agendas aside are the successful teams. It's not easy. That's why it's hard being a good teammate, but everyone has that choice.
I wanted someone to say something to knock me off my feet. And I was very disappointed. This organization, I knew what it was all about.
Sometimes it's like I have to remind myself that that really happened. We were a good team ... Not a long time ago, but last year. It's funny how things change so fast.
At the end of the day, what brought me back here was my players, the guys I've played with. That meant more to me than anything.
