nba regular run sets takes team
It takes a while -- a long time, because we have so many different sets, options. It's not just the regular old sets that every NBA team runs. We run a lot of stuff. It's kind of complicated.
adjust defense guys hurt matter opposed team
No matter who we're playing, we have too many options. We have so many guys that can hurt you as opposed to a team with just one or two guys. You can't adjust the defense on us. We have too many weapons.
coming excited forward good looking next teams week
I am a little more excited now because we've got some good teams coming in over the next week or so. I am looking forward to that.
christmas game playing team
It's just another game, really. I mean, it's Christmas and that's a little more fun, playing a big game on TV. Other than that, it's early. I just want to be playing that team in June.
circle credit dominating excited few finally full gotten league notoriety proper team
I'm so excited that our team is finally getting the credit we deserve. We've been dominating the league for a few years and not gotten the proper notoriety and attention. We've kind of come full circle with that.
ahead coast far finish guys lay looking reason teams whatever
I think that for whatever reason we think that we can coast to the finish line, and not do what we have done all season. We are getting away from what we do, and guys are looking too far ahead to the playoffs. We have to do the things that we have always done. Teams aren't just going to lay down for us.
anytime best coming league sure team
I'm sure they get up to play us. Anytime you have the best team in the league coming into your building, you know that's the case.
great honest kept steve team winning
I'd be my choice, to be honest with you, but Steve Nash is another great choice. He's kept that team afloat, and not just afloat, but winning a division.
disrespect elite fun teams
No disrespect to anybody, but it's always fun to play the other elite teams in the league. It makes a difference.
couple score team
I think we'll be a lot better offensively. Defensively, we could be as good. But when you play a faster-paced game, naturally, that other team is going to score a couple more points.
bit defense faster few might points remain score stay teams
Our defense is going to stay the same. Teams might score a few more points because we might play a little bit at a faster pace, but our defense will remain one or two in the league.
best expect game june playing teams
Our game is what it is. It's the best two teams playing, and really, it's the two teams that I expect to be playing in June again.
best drama happen kobe owners people teams
(Our game) has the best two teams playing. But it (isn't) the best two teams to write about or the best two teams to watch. Ain't no drama with our game, ain't no big story. (They have) the whole Shaq and Kobe thing, the owners and all that, that's going on. People want to see what's going to happen with all that.
beat best bit came care doubt looking past struggling team teams took toughest
No doubt about it. That team is one of the best teams in the West. They've been struggling a little bit but that's when it's toughest to play teams, when they're struggling. They're looking to get back right and what better team to beat than us? We didn't look past that team, came out and took care of business.
