games gives good guys shows team win
I think it's a good thing for our team right now. If we can win games without Chris, I think it gives these guys even more confidence. And it also shows when he comes back that we'll even be better.
care closer continue games goes took
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.
five games next ourselves win
We just have to win these next five games to give ourselves the opportunity. That's it.
games looked miss
When I looked at the schedule, I thought he could miss 10 games at the worst.
bad best chris feels games interests love next relax wants
I don't think Chris will play tomorrow. I would love to just let him relax for the next two games and see how he feels for Monday. Right now, I think he's still pretty banged up. I know how bad he wants to play, but I don't think it would be in his best interests to play the next two games at least.
chris feels games love next relax
I don't think Chris will play (today). I would love to just let him relax for the next two games and see how he feels for Monday.
cannot defend games hard hustle involved learn stay
There's going to be games when you don't make shots. That cannot make you not defend or not hustle or not play hard on the other end of the floor. You've got to learn that in this league, OK, my shot's not falling, I can do other things to stay involved in this game and stay on the floor.
cheering fantastic job
I thought they did a fantastic job cheering us on.
effort guys points talking win
I thought our effort was much better. Defensively we're just having way too many lapses. Guys aren't communicating out there and talking to each other. You give up (52) points in the paint, you're not going to win too many games.
decision everybody forward glad looking playing
I think all the players, everybody in our organization is glad that it's over with and the decision has been made and we can just keep looking forward to playing basketball.
few guys hard locker mental physical room simple team toughness understand watch
I think a few of those guys in that locker room have quit. It's disappointing to me; (those guys) won't be here, it's as simple as that. We have no mental or physical toughness on this team right now. It's just hard to watch that; it's hard to watch these young guys that don't understand and don't get it.
easier fall five gives guard jason point rely six
It gives us a different dimension, because we don't rely on one or two guys. We rely on five or six guys. If you have a point guard like Jason Kidd, it makes it easier for everyone else to fall into place.
base basketball change fan hurricane louisiana might people
I think they would understand. All the people that were in Louisiana before the hurricane are not there right now, so I don't think the fan base is there right now for our basketball team, especially right now in this month. It might change in March.
bottom guys jason join percent plays
Jason plays at 110 percent in every game. We need other guys to join him. That's the bottom line.
