ball bit defensive good half moved run second start
We got some good energy, and I thought we moved the ball a lot better at the start of the second half and we got out in transition. Antoine had a good run at the defensive end a little bit that got us out into transition.
active defensive good last looked obviously parts rusty
Shaquille obviously looked rusty offensively. But he looked very good on the defensive glass, and he was more active defensively than he was for big parts of last year.
again certainly good job maybe scouting true
We've got very good young guys. I've said this for 10 years, and it's certainly true again this year, maybe more so than in a lot of years. Our scouting staff, they've done an unbelievable job uncovering good young players.
ahead beat good people spot veteran
They are going to have to beat out those veteran guys. It is not going to be easy. At every spot there are good veteran people ahead of them.
energy good liked
There were a lot of good things tonight. More than anything I really liked our energy and our intensity.
good ways
Defensively he's not there yet because he's still got a ways to go conditioning-wise, ... but he's a very good defender.
good guys plays trying
I thought guys were trying to make good plays but our spacing was really fouled up.
good knock looking needs obviously shoot shots
He's a very, very good passer and he can shoot the ball. He needs to knock down perimeter shots for us consistently. That's obviously something that we're looking for right now.
good offensive stuff
At the offensive end, I didn't do a good job. I didn't find stuff for us to run.
good
It was just a very good win. We need everything we can get right now.
defender defensive good great
Gary's a good defender with a potentially great defensive disposition,
fine good ready wayne
If Earl and Wayne have to ... play, I'm fine with that. They're good players. They've been working their butts off to be ready to play.
basketball fine good guys wayne
If Earl and Wayne have to go in and play I'm fine with that. Those two guys are good basketball players.
analogy angst expectation good hard individual lead olympics roll team
The hard part is, from the outside, the expectation is that it is going to be very easy, you're just going to roll out there with your talent, ... That can lead to a lot of angst when things don't go well. There's a lot more to being a team than talent. I used the analogy of the Olympics with them. We have a lot of good individual players, but that is not going to be enough.
