deserved fun guys hope mockery
The guys were having fun with it. For what we've been through this season, I thought the guys deserved it. I hope what we did didn't make a mockery of the game.
basketball both ends hope kevin notice playing solid taking
Kevin and Wally are playing at an All-Star level. I hope everyone is taking notice that they are playing solid basketball at both ends of the floor.
growing harder hopefully learn nobody trying
That's growing pains. Hopefully Marcus will learn from it; nobody was trying harder than he was.
gets hope rehab until
That's always a concern, but I hope that's not the case. I think rehab should be the first option. But if he has to (have a cleaning-out procedure), we have to keep going until he gets back.
far giving guard guy himself hope mentality pit point respect sees wants within
I hope he sees that we're giving him an opportunity. He's got a lot of respect within the organization from our coaches. I think he's everything we would need. We have a big point guard in Marko. And we would need a guy like himself and A.C. as far as a pit bull-type mentality defensively, and offensively being able to go where he wants to go with the basketball.
boards defensive hard offensive run
It's hard to run out when you don't get defensive stops. They got so many offensive boards that it slowed down our momentum.
execute mentally
It's not really who you play; it's us. It's how we mentally prepare. It's how we execute offensively. It's how we execute defensively more so than who the other (team) is.
continuing good hard job keeping team together train veteran
He's done a good job of going in there and keeping it together and continuing to train - which is hard to do sometimes. Especially when you have a veteran team like that . . . that's used to doing things their way.
sees somebody
If he sees somebody open, he's going to make the pass. He's very unselfish, which is what you want in your superstar.
allowed confidence easy forced quick rhythm took
I thought we took some quick shots, which allowed them to get easy buckets. It got their confidence going; it got their rhythm going. We forced some shots.
blew couple past
I don't think they blew by us once on those mid-pick-and-rolls. The past couple games, they've had a smorgasbord.
chicago dead far incident team thoughts
The incident happened. It's history. As far as I'm concerned, it's a dead issue. Our whole thoughts as a team are going to be, from here on out, the Chicago Bulls.
mess
If you mess with the game, it will come around and get you in the end.
agents cap coach salary worry
I just want to coach basketball. I don't want to worry about the salary cap and agents calling.
