ball clearly fantastic maybe players shape shot top year
(Brand) is clearly one of the top 10 players in the league, maybe the top five. I read early on that he said he is in much better shape this year and that has helped. He has shot the ball well from the perimeter. He is just having a fantastic season.
best game great maybe tyson
I thought it was a great effort. Tyson was a big lift. I thought maybe that he had his best game of the year.
blind five good half maybe men problem second talking
We need every win. The problem is we started the second half like five blind men. We were not executing, not talking to each other. Maybe one half is good enough for us right now. We have to get that rectified.
add five four maybe mean row seven six string together win
We've got to put together a string at some time. It doesn't mean we have to put together seven in a row or anything like that. At some point, we have to win five of six and maybe add another four out of five in there.
decisions maybe wish
But we've all made spur-of-the-moment decisions that maybe we look back on and wish we hadn't made.
maybe taken
Maybe we could have taken more fouls. He just powered us.
guess maybe
It?s been kind of mysterious, really, ... Maybe if I was on TV, pleading my case, I?d be better off. But I guess that?s not really my style.
coming front full game good guys home maybe momentum pick team
We were able to pick up a full game on the team right in front of us. I think it is important that the guys go home with a good game under their belt. Maybe we will have a little momentum coming out of the break.
bizarre crazy happens maybe
I think that, if maybe something so bizarre ever happens one time, (the NBA) will take a look at (the seeding system). That's probably what it's going to take. Some crazy thing.
almost inch maybe next year
He's almost an inch taller. Maybe by next year he'll be a 7-footer.
looked
We just looked out of it. We looked out of it most of the night.
ball defense driving finally kindness near picked quarter start third waited
We just waited too long to start playing. We kind of just sleepwalked through 2 1/2 quarters. Then near the end of the third quarter we finally started getting aggressive. We started driving the ball and our defense picked up.
focus move talked
We just talked about it with the guys; we want to move up. That's what we'll keep our focus on now.
bad basketball concerned gave good half lack points quarter respect tough win
We just gave them 25 points off turnovers and it's tough to win when you do that. I'm concerned about this one good half, one bad half routine, one good quarter, one bad quarter that we've been in and just the carelessness with the ball. And, a lack of respect for the basketball out there was pretty amateurish.
