changed easier job players proud stuff
I really got after the players ... and they responded really, really well. I changed a lot of stuff right away and they made my job easier because they cooperated so much. From that standpoint, I was proud of them.
build changed continue kids
The two young kids (Swift and Petro) were great. If they continue to build on what they're doing, we're going to be a changed team.
asked changed coaches might nice touch touched
At first, they said I touched him, and then they said I changed the shot. I didn't touch him. I might have been on the floor, but coaches do that. I asked if they were going to give them the ball, too, but they said we could keep it. That was nice of them.
change developing direction floor playing putting robert sets team throwing total younger
I think if we don't make any trades, or we don't change the team at all, you have to look at playing Johan (Petro) and Robert (Swift) and throwing them the ball, putting sets in for them, developing them even further, getting Damien (Wilkins) on the floor even more. I think that is the direction we would go, total development of the younger guys.
change forcing halftime second
At halftime I kind of let them have it for the whole halftime. We didn't really change anything ... the second half was about forcing their will on the game.

The first half was very exciting. I was happy for Ray. He's had a phenomenal years and a phenomenal first half.

He was somewhere else tonight. I don't how else to explain it. He turned it over, couldn't make a shot.
golf love playing position week
I don't golf, so I try to get into as many ballgames in a week as I can. I pitch, but I have to play every other position when I sub. I love playing all the positions.
breakfast good happen impression length talked
I think there is a sense of relief. We talked at length at breakfast and I got the impression that it was going to happen and it was a good feeling. I have been working as if this thing was going to happen, but it's good to know it is done.
biggest fits miss pace playing quicker reason
I think the biggest reason we miss him is the way we're playing now. We're playing a quicker pace and it fits him so well.
anticipate floor
I don't anticipate him doing much for us on the floor this year.
accused agents bitter convinced fathers lottery nba prouder
I'm like one of his fathers who couldn't be prouder of him. It's a long story, but at the bitter end his agents accused me of badmouthing him to the NBA people; because they had convinced him he was a lottery pick.

I'm not so sure Robert Swift doesn't deserve to start.
