lies-and-lying several
There were several of them (lies), weren't there?
beat chance close effort game great last type
They're having a great year. We're going to have to have to have the same type of effort we had last game (against the Lakers) to keep it close and to have a chance to beat them.
five gotten guys neighbors sake
After five years, I would think you guys would have gotten it right, for the sake of the neighbors.
athletic beat obviously positive
That's no excuse. Young and athletic is a positive for them, but then there's young and inexperienced for them. If we're not as athletic as them, we have to beat them with experience; and obviously we didn't do that.
confusing settle
They are doing great. It's been a confusing day for them for sure, but after a day they could settle down and feel at home.
basically close couple games loss lost road row seven trend won
(Close games) have kind of been a trend lately. We lost some close games. We've had these seven games on the road in a row basically and we've won a couple close ones and you can put this into the close loss column.
basketball difference flying game hours matter night practicing wherever
No matter what you do, you can tell the difference when you return. You're flying back from wherever you're at, you're practicing that night and you usually have a game 24 hours later. There's conditioning and then there's basketball conditioning.
dates hanging high instead kids night ought school shooting
These kids ought to be going to proms and on dates and high school instead of hanging out all night and having handguns and shooting each other.
chances coaches general location lottery
I think it's disappointing to everyone involved. At no other location are you going to have all 32 coaches and all 32 general managers. I liken it to the lottery - the more times you play, the more chances you have to win.
chances improves obviously season seed sixth win
It's been an up-and-down season for us. Obviously to come in as the sixth seed and to win the first game, that improves your chances dramatically.
work
I'm going to the Caribbean. I'll work out one or two days, but I'll do a lot of relaxing.
against bad best charlotte figure hawks lost says teams
The Raptors are 2-0 against us. The Hawks are 3-0 against us. We lost to Charlotte by 35. I don't know what it is against teams that don't have the best record, but we don't do well against them. That says something really bad about our team that we're going to have to figure out.
good joking limp playing running saying seem whenever
He was making it seem like he was playing on one leg. We were joking with him, saying he wasn't limping when he was just running up and down the court, but whenever he did something good he was really emphasizing his limp to say: 'I'm playing hurt, look.
best gets legs nice player stuff
It's nice to have our best player back, and we know what he can do when he gets his legs and stuff under him.
