locker needed
With this win, in that locker room, they needed something positive.
love
I think they love being in this environment. I didn't read what Isiah said, but he never .expressed that to me.
felt guy himself knowing looking looks loves perfect point special wants
I always felt if you get a big guy and a point guard, you got it made. And they were pretty special together.... Kevin, knowing him, he has no ego, he just loves to play and wants to win. I don't think he ever looks at himself as 'the man.' I think that was a perfect match. Looking back on it, it's kind of sad.
fun loved played shared trying watch
I loved the effort. We shared the ball, and it was more fun to watch with them trying like they did. We played hard, and we played unselfishly. I thought we were ready.
comments good love
I love Tony. He's a good friend. I'm not going to make any comments on what he said. That's not my place.
game happen love played seem thousand
A lot of things that happen off the court, that I don't think are big deals, here seem to be magnified a thousand percent. It's part of it. But that's why I love being here, because if you ever played the right way, our game will be better for it.
along best chance figure gives golf hole jack love playing rather run somehow somewhere
I love to see us run up and down the court, but I think somewhere along the line, we're going to have to figure it out. It's like playing Jack Nicklaus in golf in his prime. I'd rather play him one hole than 18. We've got to somehow say this gives us our best chance to win.
anyone comments conference enjoyed listen loved parts people philly playing press
I listen to some of the comments on WIP - they're playing parts of the press conference - and I can see where people would read into things. But if anyone was at the press conference, I think would sense how much I enjoyed Philly and how I loved working for those people.
basketball hear love team tune
I don't tune them out at all. I hear it all. I'm embarrassed. I know how much they love basketball and love this team and want us to do well. And when we play poorly, I hear it, and it kills me because I'm responsible.
draft earlier love orleans picks
I love the kid. I begged my friends who had earlier picks than New Orleans to draft him. He's phenomenal.
effort love win
I just love the effort tonight. But when you don't have the win that makes it tough.
enthusiasm fight horrified looking proud
I was just looking for something to give us enthusiasm and effort, ... I would have been horrified if they didn't fight back. But I was proud of the effort.
evaluate
He's out 'til after All-Star break, and then we'll evaluate him after All-Star break.
francis impact practice steve
This is a process. We didn't have Steve Francis with us in practice and that's going to impact us.
