best hold player stuff win
When you hold their best player to 8-for-24, you should win the game, but stuff is not going our way right now.
great hit job ready shots
We were doing a great job on him defensively and then he hit two shots that, boy, were quick-trigger. You have to be ready for him at all times.
easy game road solid
It's not easy to play on the road in this league. We have to play a well-rounded, solid game to get over the hump.
gets matter shot
Doesn't matter who gets the shot in the fourth.
apparently both emotions gave great minnesota mixed parties seven team time
I've got a lot of mixed emotions. Seven years is a long time to be with one team. I've got nothing but great things to say about Minnesota fans. The team gave me a great opportunity. But both parties apparently thought it was time to make a change.
best found half second shots start stroke teammates
The best thing (Doc Rivers) did for me was start me in the second half because I got some shots in warm-ups and found my stroke a little bit. In the beginning, I was a little ramped-up and then was off and running. And my teammates made it easy.
ball criticism criticizes feels help himself needs puts respect shooting taken team wants win
It was awesome. I've got a lot of respect for that guy. All the criticism he's taken over the years, I don't think it's warranted at all. He puts himself out there, he wants to win, you can see it in his eyes. Everyone criticizes him for shooting too much but he's just doing what he feels he needs to do to help his team win ball games.
kicked takes turn
It takes us getting our butts kicked to turn it on.
along ball complement dominate double dribble feed forward gotten great looking playing teams
It's been great with Paul. I think I complement his game, because I don't dominate the ball that much. I'm more of a spot-up guy. I don't dribble the ball to get my shots. I feed off of him and the double teams he draws. We've gotten along great, and I'm looking forward to playing with him for a lot of years to come in the future.
trades
It's a big-time opportunity. In this day and age, you never know why trades are made.
game playing question stayed
We didn't play the game the right way. They went on a run, they stayed aggressive. That team's playing better. They're a lot better than their record. No question about it.
Yeah, he said we have a beef. I was like, whatever.
forgot people seemed whatever
I was an All-Star in this league, and it seemed like some people forgot that, for whatever reason.
lost trying
I think we completely lost our composure. We were up and it was like we were just trying to find a way to lose.
