I really liked the way we competed in the second half.
He can run, and he has a high basketball IQ, ... You'll see the ball in his hands as a playmaker. He's very competitive, and he wants to win. I liked his demeanor on the court and the way he reacted with his teammates. It's reassuring.
I really liked the way we competed in the second half. With Michael and Mo out, I was really proud of the way our team competed.

But I did think that Michael was being held and grabbed a lot. I'm just stating what I saw.
It was a competitive scrimmage. We still have a long way to go, but it's reassuring that the work we did this week is showing up a little bit.
It's hard, as much as Rip was holding and grabbing.
Joe is still playing limited minutes and he's still in an adjustment period as far as managing the game. And managing if you want to save his (last) 2 or 3 minutes until the end of the game or not.
I could see just from how the players were responding just how much it meant to them.
I think what this trade does is put us, hopefully, in the forefront of being a playoff team. We want to make the transition easy for Andrew.
I like the way we responded after last night's loss; it was pretty demoralizing. To come back with the energy that that we had tonight was good to see.
Andrew and Jamaal did a fantastic job of rebounding the ball.
I'm proud of our streak of keeping teams under 94. Really everyone on the floor contributed defensively.
In addition to his solid, veteran presence on the floor, Toni's knowledge and experience will be an invaluable asset to the younger players on our roster.
