again biggest came cap joe shot tip
Joe came up big again tonight. You have to tip your cap to him, he made the biggest shot of the night.
happens normal shots
I thought he had his normal looks. He just didn't make his shots and that happens in this league.
bit defend guys handle joe looking open putting shots team together
Joe is the description of what they're looking for. When you're putting a team together you're looking for guys who can do a little bit of everything. You want guys that can score, handle the ball, pass, defend and make shots in the open court. Joe can do all of those things.
grown last looks percent shot year
He's grown up. Last year we would have cringed when he shot the basketball. Now his shot looks like a shot. He's 100 percent better than he was last year, but he still has a long way to go.
figure growing handling looks nice player plays shot starting trying
He's starting to figure it out. It's nice to see. His shot looks like a shot right now, and he's making it. He's handling the ball, making plays and he's trying to defend. It's all a part of growing up and being a better player in this league.
ball neither nights played shot team
Neither team played much defense. They shot the ball really well, and we were red-hot as well, so those nights sometimes happen.
dealing funny
That's the funny thing when you're dealing with young guys, 19-year-olds,
busting fun guys locker
It's all about those guys in the locker room. They've been busting their butts. It's fun winning.
few key
I thought there were a few key plays. We just have so much to overcome.
fourth move quarter stagnant
The fourth quarter we went flat. We just didn't execute, we didn't move the ball, we got very stagnant and we were able to be guarded.
billy bringing figure manager maybe monday next sit week
Salim will be back on Monday and we'll sit down next week and maybe think about bringing someone in, but I don't know who that's going to be. I'll sit down with Billy (general manager Billy Knight) and figure out what to do next.
coming enemy fault guys tonight worst
I can't fault our guys and their effort. We were our own worst enemy tonight coming down the stretch.
bottom goes huge joe line piece saying terms trying turning ultimately
I think it goes without saying that Joe is a huge piece to what we're trying to do in terms of turning this thing around and ultimately making the playoffs, which is the bottom line and why I'm here.

I am extremely excited to add a player of Joe's background to our team. He is a great young talent. Atlanta will soon learn how important it was to finalize this deal.
