move sure
I'm sure we'll be able to move forward.
chicago credit gave guys honest reflected sure
I'm sure our guys were disappointed about not being in the playoffs, but I don't think it reflected in our play. They gave an honest effort, but just didn't play as well as we've been playing. But let's give Chicago some credit because they made some big shots.
early gotten guys job liked sure thinking
I'm sure the guys would have liked to have gotten more rest. But if you're thinking that way, you come out and get the job done early and we didn't get the job done early tonight.
height investors people pulling sure
There sure are a lot of people getting nosebleeds up at this height ... Investors may be pulling back from the table.
great handled matter meals miss move resolved sitting steve sure
I like Steve as a person, I like him a great deal. I miss sitting down having meals and discussions with him, but it was a matter that had to be handled the way it was handled. I'm sure we can get it resolved as we move down the road.
engage sometime sure
I'm sure sometime (today), we'll engage in discussions about that,
attacking basketball confidence extra keeping obviously organized pass playing pressure putting running season standpoint steadily success sure team teammate type willing
He's progressed steadily through the season from the standpoint of running the basketball team, keeping the team organized offensively, making sure that we don't get into a helter-skelter type of game, especially when we're in transition. Obviously he's playing with more confidence with the success he's having, attacking the basket and putting pressure on the defense. He's a very willing passer and always willing to make the extra pass when a teammate is open.
holding looked pain saw sure
I'm sure it's discouraging for him. He looked to me that he was having some pain and I didn't want to take any chances. I saw him wincing out there and holding his midsection. It didn't make sense for him to continue. I know he's down.
francis good guys job last looked steve watching year
Steve looked like, I think, the Steve Francis that you guys were used to watching last year and that we anticipate. He was aggressive, he was attacking, he did a good job defensively.
floor hurting mental ourselves playing struggling teams toughness type
I think it's us struggling with our offense. I don't think it's so much what other teams are doing to us, I just think it's ourselves. Right now I don't see the mental toughness when we go out on the floor and play and like a team playing with that type of confidence, I think we're hurting ourselves more than other teams are hurting us.
balance basically fourth great move perfect ride stevie
I thought Stevie was great in the fourth quarter. We basically were just going to ride him, and he had, I thought, the perfect balance between when to look for his own move and when to penetrate and find other people.
guys played pleased
I thought our guys played outstanding. We got contributions from everyone out there tonight. I'm very pleased with the way we played.
active attacked boards defensive excellent offensive
He (Howard) was very focused. He attacked the basket. He was really active on the defensive end and on offensive boards and he did a excellent job.
attacking ball floor looking past putting separating
The thing that's separating him from years past is his attacking the basket. He's putting the ball on the floor and really looking to get to the basket.
