charles crazy funny humor might trying
If you know Charles, you know how crazy he is. That's Charles trying to be funny and have humor on the air. I don't think he did it maliciously. If he comes to a game, he might not want to leave.
effort energy high intensity kept night
If you look at our energy and our effort in the Clipper game, and then you look at tonight, it's night and day. It's not the same. The Clipper game, we pretty much kept the same high intensity level.
double guys magnitude needed seven step
For a 20-year-old, he really understands the magnitude of these games. We just needed other guys to step up, and we did that with seven guys in double figures.
fun great growing guys pains teaching time tough trying understand
It's been a fun first half. It's been tough at times. You go through growing pains (being) so young. For the most part, I've had a great time teaching these guys and trying to make them understand how this game, in my mind, should be played, and they're doing a great job.
became chance chris compete dan drafted elsewhere guard obvious order point sign starting
After we drafted Chris Paul, it became obvious that Dan would look to sign elsewhere in order to have a chance to compete for a starting point guard job,
became best chance chris compete dan drafted earned elsewhere gives guard last losing luck obvious order point prevents sign starting trade wish
After we drafted Chris Paul, it became obvious that Dan would look to sign elsewhere in order to have a chance to compete for a starting point guard job, ... Making this trade gives Dan that chance, which he earned by what he did for us last season, and it also prevents us from losing him without compensation. We wish him the best of luck in Boston.
achievement bigger experience gotten guys key last looking nice season terrible wins
It's not an achievement, it's what we expected. We've gotten to .500; now the key is to keep going. There are a lot of young guys that didn't experience the terrible season we had last year; the 19 wins is a nice accomplishment, but were looking to do bigger things this season.
basically matter proven
It's not a matter of can we do it. We've proven we can. It's a matter of will we do it. A lot of that is basically heart.
cost last minutes seemed team three time
It seemed like every quarter, the last to or three minutes is what cost us. That team is a championship team. They seemed to buckle down at that time and get stops. And they get buckets on the other end.
guys tells
It's disappointing. This still tells you how young the guys are.
bad break game kinda tomorrow wish
It's big for us. It's too bad the All-Star break is now, I kinda wish we had a game to play tomorrow or Friday.
ball bring count david few good halftime handling heck lost mean west
It was a heck of a win. We lost those two guys, and you know how much they mean to us and how much we count on them to take the ball handling duties. We made some adjustments at halftime and had David West bring it up a few times, as well as Desmond Mason, who did a good job.
nice win
It was nice to just win a game.
nice problem second starting
It's starting to get better. We still had some lapses in the second half. That's the problem with our young guys. We get a little comfortable when we have a nice little lead.
