You have to stand up and be heard. You have to make a coach see you.
I don't know, you'll have to ask the coach about that. I just sat there and tried to cheer on my teammates.
I think all of us had respect for coach McMillan. Some of us may not have liked his style, but it got results. We were successful with it and you have to give him credit for that. He deserves that.
If you're asking me and anybody else on this team, who you'd like to have as coach (before the season), Bob is the natural choice. He was a joy to be around and I wanted to win games for him. I think there were times when I put too much on my shoulders to make things better. In this case, we all let Bob down.
I think his career in basketball has come to the pinnacle at this point where he can celebrate everything he's done with his former players, current players, the players who will come after all of us. This is a testimony to how great of a coach he is, but as a person first and foremost just by the simple fact that he has this much support from everybody he's been around and everyone who's been under his tutelage.
The discipline stuff, I'm going to leave that to the coaches and management,
I never apologize for blowing anybody out. I love it. Let us have our moment to be able to play.
It's something we have known that has been going on, ... It's unfortunate, because every story written has my name tied to it. And he feels bad about it as much as my mom does, and she doesn't want me to be tied into it. But I am connected to it.
It's something I had to deal with and however I can keep my family safe and allow them to live a comfortable life that's what I try to do,
Everybody ran. We got buckets in a lot of different ways. We kept running, we kept pushing it.
Everybody stepped up and they play big for us tonight. When everybody plays well, these are the result. Tonight was a sonic effort.
They just came out on fire. In the first half of the season we would kind of hang our head when we got down, but tonight we didn't hang our heads. We kept fighting. We kept our composure.
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.
They jumped out on us and we really didn't adjust to anything. Offensively, we didn't have anything going and that seemed to feed them offensively.
