He's pretty good. I don't know if you've noticed that. |
He's probably stronger and longer than what I thought. He shoots the 3 better than what I thought (46 percent in his first 12 games). |
He's so fast and powerful that even if he's 50 percent, he's one of the fastest and strongest guys we have. It's amazing. |
He's still got to be more aggressive, he's still got to dunk with authority, he's still got to work on his shot. He has those [reluctant to shoot] tendencies, but you can't get upset with him. That's how he plays, that's his game. He'll do that, but I think little by little we can get him to be a little bit more aggressive in finishing. |
He's the guy that's a handful. Shawn did a great job, but at the same time, the guy is 7 feet (listed at 6-10). He's a big lug in there. We'll make little adjustments here and there, but we're not going to go crazy yet. |
Hey, the guy's an unbelievable talent. In about an hour and a half he'll be in shape and ready to go. |
His body was dead tonight and didn't have the juice - probably the adrenaline from last time. |
His defense on Pierce ... was incredible — that was big-time right there. |
Hopefully, this is a great match and we can maximize his skills. He can really fit into what we do. |
I am excited about what we are building here in Phoenix and the nucleus we presently have on and off the court. While leading our basketball operations, my day to day focus will continue to be on coaching our players. |
I appreciate what Boris did out there taking only four shots. He does exactly what he needs to do to win and that is why it is going to work. |
I didn't realize that he was that close, so I took him out. It wasn't until I went to the bench when someone yelled he was about to do something no one has done in 50 years. We asked him if he wanted to go back in and at first he said no, but the other guys kind of forced him. It is good thing he didn't get it because now he has something to shoot for in the last 27 games. |
I don't know how Marion put up those numbers and didn't play as well as he did in the last game. He is on a roll. |
I don't know if it's anything personal. You'd have to ask him. But it sure seemed like it. |
I don't know what it is about overtimes. We don't get overtime pay, so I don't know why we do it. |
