credit deserves effort guy lots position ready supposed surprised
I think Damien Wilkins deserves lots and lots of credit for this one. I was a little surprised that he scored so many points, but I wasn't surprised in his effort or his defense. That's what a guy in his position is supposed to be ready to do.
bringing energy limit lots sky
The sky is the limit with him. He's bringing lots of energy all over the floor.
behind closed create deception hard justify lots meetings whatever work
I just know him too well. I know what he's like behind closed doors. I've been in lots and lots of meetings with him. The only way he can justify what he did was to create all this deception that I was some kind of ... monster. That I was hard to work with or whatever ... and they were all lies.
credit deserves lots
Damien deserves lots and lots of credit for this one.
defensive finishing miss sets talked
I thought that we just couldn't keep them off the boards. We talked about finishing our defensive sets and we'd get them to miss and then they'd get the rebound.
changing good half practices
I thought under the circumstances of having only one and a half to two practices and changing systems, we were pretty good out there. Overall, I was really pleased.
boil concepts free improve line throw
I think (we can make a run). We have to improve the defense. The concepts are better but it's going to boil down to them. (Tonight) just can't happen. We can't let them go to the free throw line like that.
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.
good
Just an all-around good win. One of our best.
goal ourselves position positive team
Our goal right now as a team is to put ourselves in position to do something positive with the season.
game guys hard kicking neither playing team teams took win
Our guys wanted to win the game because of the butt kicking we took in Houston. It wasn't a 'get back.' Neither team is going to the playoffs. It's just two teams playing hard but not playing for anything.
lost performance played
We played so much better and we played harder, but it's tough. It was a better performance but I'm disappointed that we lost the (darn) game.
fight games legs move played sure
We played pretty well in the first half, then I'm sure our legs got tired. We wouldn't move and we weren't guarding. Away games are tough, but they have to find a way to fight fatigue. That was a winnable game.
ball below extra foul front good guy job last
We wanted to keep an extra guy in front of Kobe. And keep the last guy open. When the ball was below the foul line, I think we did a really good job of that.
