corey deny elton
Elton is our horse. No one will deny that. But we need to get Corey back. We need Z back. We need all of our guys.
short shot
I don't think he tipped it. I just shot it short. I shot it short over a 7-foot guy.
downs intensity lack tend ups
I think as long as we have intensity, then we'll be fine. All ups and downs come from lack of intensity, and as long as we have intensity for 48 minutes, we're fine. When we lack that intensity, we tend to struggle.
battle fan favorite great hollywood james kobe magic main man norm
I was always a Laker fan - Magic Johnson, James Worthy, my main man Norm Nixon. Kobe Bryant's my favorite player. It would be the battle of Hollywood - it would be great for the city.
dictated game lost mirror team three win
Everyone on this team has to take a look in the mirror and be accountable for what they do. They dictated the whole game - probably 45 minutes. Down the stretch, we made some plays. It's a win in our column, we had lost three in a row. We'll take it.
atmosphere backs challenge face far hold point won
It's going to be outrageous, the atmosphere in Denver. All we've done to this point is hold serve. We've won at home. As far as I'm concerned, we still face a big challenge going to Denver. Our backs are to the wall, just like they've been all season.

That was my first time ever doing that. I've seen it done a lot of times. It did affect me because everything I did, I felt it.

It was definitely a big win for us. This was a game that we really needed. It would be sweet if we could get the win (Saturday), too.
doubt great heck
It's going to take more than one year. But we've got a heck of a start. No doubt about it, L.A. is a great place, especially when you're winning.
easy job stuff
I just told him, the first day I got here, I'll make his job look easy. The stuff he does, I'll make it come easy to him.
great paul players ricky shoot surprises tonight
They made shots. They've got two great players in Ricky and Paul who can shoot off the dribble, so nothing they did tonight really surprises me.
depend player stepping
He's become a player who's not just out there playing, but someone we depend on. We depend on him. He's been stepping up for us.

Elton has always played consistently, but now we're winning basketball games and people are finally taking notice.
career direction history satisfying year
He told me it wasn't so much about the organization and the history here. It was about the direction of the team. This is an up-coming team. He told me I'd have the most satisfying year of my career here.
