capable confidence stuff ultimate
He has the ultimate confidence in his stuff with what he's capable of doing.
beat bottom guy kirk record speaks starter
He had a guy that beat him out, and to me that's the bottom line. That's all it's about. If you look at our record with him as a starter and you look at our record with Kirk as a starter, to me that speaks for itself.
couple feels
He feels pretty good, but they want to give him a couple of more days.
gives guy minutes plays tough
He gives us another guy that can really just go up and down the floor, that can fly. He just plays big-time minutes and he's a tough kid.
bench came deep defense extended guy loved minutes played
We can go 10 deep very easily. Speedy is a guy that can play extended minutes for us off the bench and give us a boost. I loved the way he came out and got after it on defense and played hard.

The people have been incredible, ... I walked into a place last night, and the person said, 'You guys are like movie stars. We don't know how to act.' I said, 'No, we're just normal people. We just want to be wanted.'

We took care of tonight. That was the first phase. Now we have to get these games on the road. Each day that goes by we continue to get closer to our goal.

bad giving knows love playing single someday time true
He's always said that he would love to someday play in Toronto, and that's understandable. That's his hometown. But he's never come in here with a bad attitude. He's been a true professional every single day. He knows this is where he's going to be playing for the time being, and he's giving us 100 percent.
game hopefully near playing somewhere
He just had a game of his life. Hopefully he can keep playing like that or somewhere near like that.
goes knowing repetition run seem sure wait
He just doesn't seem real sure of what he's doing out there right now. Again, it goes back to repetition and knowing how to run our offense. . . . I can't wait for Speedy to get back.
