effort hustle played plays
We made some hustle plays that got us back. We played hard. The effort was there, and that was big.
He was phenomenal. I told him he got us back in the game.
field four kept man played run six three
He was phenomenal. I kept (Curry) in with four fouls and we made a little run and then boom, he's out of the game. No blocks, six fouls, three turnovers, no assists, two-for-seven from the field and his man played with unbelievable energy.
easy figure finding giving larry maybe saying telling trying win
He was giving an opinion, maybe saying Isiah and Larry have different opinions. I don't know if that's derogatory. I'm telling you that we're on the same page. We're trying to win and we're trying to figure this out. He didn't tell me it was going to be easy when I got the job. And I'm finding that out.

He was great. We tried to run with him and we gave up 71 (first-half) points.

He does an amazing job. Even if you dunk on him he tries to get back and block the next one.

He looks so much better physically. A lot of people forget that when he was thinner, he had a lot of skills.

This wasn't one of their better games but it's a quality win for us on the road.

This wasn't (Auburn Hills). What happened that night started because of a fight on the court. This was nothing like that. Once (Davis) got up there, he didn't do anything.
