ball beat mental mentally physically quality starts taken teams
It starts with mental strength. Just to have the ball taken from you like that is disheartening. For us to beat quality teams like that, we're going to have to be mentally and physically tougher.
basketball iq
I thought our basketball IQ at the end of the game, up 11, could have been a lot better.
act fine foul game grown guy hate intensity love time
I love his competitive spirit, I love his intensity and I hate the way the game has grown to where you can act your way to calls. In hockey, I like (that) they fine, they fine for dives. And every time the guy exaggerates the contact, the foul would be on him.
andre blocked coming ended help miller paying reaction sequence stuff though three
That sequence (with the three consecutive blocked shots), even though they ended up scoring, and Yao coming to help on Andre Miller ? those things are inspiring. And you can tell by the reaction of everybody, the team, the paying customers, that stuff is inspiring.
negative painted type
I don't want to get painted as a negative quote. I want to be positive. I'm a (glass) half-full type of guy.
judge people
I don't judge people by how they come off the bus,
absolute best definitely disgrace flop guy sick stand watching
Reggie Evans would definitely get best actor in the league. I am so sick of watching that guy flop I can't stand it. It is an absolute disgrace what he does.
helped proud teams
I think he should be very, very proud of what he accomplished in his career, because he helped a lot of teams overachieve because of his toughness,
bench came gave good played
I thought our bench played substandard. We had a good start, and then our bench came in and gave up the lead.
actively against chance defense great greatest help league less room scheme transition
All the great perimeter scorers in this league have a better chance in transition than they do against set defense to get to the line. There's less you can do to scheme in transition. That's not Tracy's greatest strength, but I think it would really help him to get out more actively because I think he could find more freedom, more room to move.
aggressive assertive percentage shoot shots win
I thought (McGrady) was doing that right before he was hurt, being very aggressive and assertive but more efficient, and getting Yao more shots so that we can shoot a percentage that can win in this league.
burden capable good huge obviously shoulders tonight
I didn't think Yao was particularly as good tonight as he has been. There's obviously a huge burden on his shoulders right now, but we're capable of making (shots) and we didn't tonight.
crossroads guys owe pay people regardless stand
A lot of our guys are at the crossroads of their careers. Some know it, and some don't. Individually and as a team, we have a lot to play for, regardless of where we stand in the standings. But more so, we owe it when people pay to come see us.
caught game good gotten nba transition
He's had many good stretches, it's just that sometimes we get caught up in the numbers. I look at the whole thing, his pick-and-roll coverage, his transition defense. I think he's gotten better from his first game in the NBA through now.
