locker needed
With this win, in that locker room, they needed something positive.
hopefully learned opportunity
I haven't had this opportunity in a long time. I've learned a lot from this season, and hopefully I'll be better for it.
hope players
I hope we get players in here who want to defend. And keep the ones who make that a priority.
hopeful
They got him in a splint, he's hopeful he'll be back.
broken hate hope stays terrific wonderful work
I think he'd a wonderful player. I hope they can work it out where he stays there. That's a terrific team. I hate to see that broken up.
coaching happens hope improves
If something happens and it improves our team, it happens. If something doesn't happen you've got to keep coaching and hope you coach them better.
awhile beginning hopefully next rest shut sudden time
Dr. Callahan told me let's shut it down awhile and give him some time to rest because he hasn't done anything (like this) in two years, ... It's a lot different than working out on your own and then all of sudden being in this kind of environment. So we're going to shut it down a little bit. Hopefully he'll be back the beginning of next week. We'll know a lot more then.
badly good happy hear hopefully hurt last ready serious spoke time
I'm happy to hear he's not really hurt as badly as he could have been. I spoke to him today. This would have been a good time for him, the last 16 games. It's not something that serious and hopefully he'll be ready for the summer.
defend hope players willing
I hope we get players in here who want to defend and we keep the ones who have that as a priority. I think that's the only way you can win. Generally, if a guy's willing to defend, he's going to be unselfish, he's always going to play hard, and he's probably going to have unbelievable character.
affect change coach hopeful lifestyle maybe resolve walk whether
It's not something I enjoy, but it's not going to affect whether I can coach or not. It's not going to make me walk away from doing this. But I'm hopeful maybe we can resolve this so I can change my lifestyle a little bit. But there is nothing that I have that can keep me doing from what I want to do.
battling benefit crazy effort hope kids situations
I look out there and Channing was battling like crazy with 14 rebounds. His effort was great. You hope kids benefit in situations like that.
ends fun hopeful names period soon
That's not my place. I'm hopeful this ends soon because it's never any fun to go through a period like this and read your names in the paper.
build comment further great happy hard hopefully practice worked
Nah, that had nothing to do with it. I'm not going to comment any further on it. I'm just happy he worked hard and, you know, he had a great practice today. Hopefully we'll build on that.
badly beat behind hopefully inside james presence somebody
Not having Eddy and Jerome James is everything. You see how badly we get beat if somebody drives. We have no shot-blocking, no inside presence on defense. Or offense. So it's huge. But hopefully all that's behind him.
