awesome chance hope kid nba
This is something as a kid you hope you get a chance to do. Getting a chance to play in the NBA is an awesome thing and then you get a chance to play for your country, which is something I never thought would happen.
forward looking opportunity
Just to be able to get the opportunity to go do it is huge. I'm looking forward to the opportunity.
nba platform share
I just know he's called me to use the NBA platform as a way to share about him.
beginning last lost ourselves played though three tuesday
I think we played better in the last three games, ... Even though we lost Tuesday (in New Jersey) you could see the improvement. We are beginning to find ourselves and be more comfortable out there.
gets knows offensive plays ready
He's a workhorse, ... He doesn't need plays called to him. He gets offensive rebounds. He knows where to be on penetration. I know he knows to be ready for that ball, and that's big.
thinking
I thought about him, but I was thinking more about the 2-for-1.
couple hate wearing
I do own a couple suits. I just hate wearing them.
alex chance close few good people quite starting
It's good to see Alex get his chance because he's been close a few times, but has never quite made it. Alex is a good player, and people here are starting to see what he can do.
coming earlier heads road
Earlier in the season, our heads would have went down. For us to get through this game, especially coming off such a long road trip, showed a lot.
bottom consistency line perseverance run talked time
There was no flow, no consistency and no pick-and-rolls. We weren't running. We talked about how we wanted to run and didn't. The bottom line is we didn't do it at all. It was tough, but it was perseverance time for me.
believed difference early happened late left time
Yeah, it's similar, but the only difference is that happened early and we still believed there was time left in the season. It's getting late now.
focus
We know we can score, that's not the issue. We've got to get stops. Put the focus on that.
