fall houses replace tree uncle works
My uncle works in the prison, so he's still there and he said a lot of the houses are straight. My sister's house had a tree fall on it, but it didn't do too much damage. It's nothing we can't rebuild. You can't replace a life, but you can replace the houses and the fences.
far help leaders pick replace
As far as being a leader, I think we all have to pick it up, ... One person can't replace Reggie, we just all have to be leaders on the court. We have to help each other as much as we can.
job replace seem trying
I'm not trying to replace Reggie because that would be something that's impossible, ... All I can do is come here and do my job and make it seem like he's not missed.

best drives frustrated gets hard hungry knows motivates people player plays reason ron stuff time understand wants
People don't understand that a lot of stuff he's done and the reason he plays so hard and is so hungry is because he wants to be great. I think a lot of time Ron gets frustrated because he knows he's better than what he's been playing. He wants to be the best player in the game. That's what drives him, that's what motivates him.
last played
We feel like we have a lot to prove, ... But not to the world, to ourselves. We know we're better than the way we played last year.
couple hope shots stop tough work
Vince is one of those guys, you can't stop him, but you just hope you can make him take some tough shots and hope he has an off night. I'm going to make him work for everything out there. And hopefully, I can get away with a couple of fouls.
excuse lose
There's no excuse to lose to those guys. We know that we're a better team.
cut game lead ran
We got back in the game and kind of ran out of gas. We didn't keep pushing. Once we cut the lead we kind of relaxed.
hit
We couldn't hit shots. That's what it all boiled down to. It was very frustrating, but at the same time, we got the looks.
