We thank Keith for all of his professionalism while he was part of our organization. He performed well for us and was a true team player. We wish him well. |
We want to build a team that has ability to sustain itself, not just an ability to win a few more games right away. We've studied all the expansion teams. We're working under the idea that it's a marathon, not a sprint. |
We were lethargic as hell. |
We're a blue-collar team, |
We're good listeners and good facilitators, ... We have to make a decision not to do anything that is vindictive, but just to try to do something that we can derive some benefit from... |

We're looking for young players who need an opportunity to play, to get minutes, ... Players who've got skills, athleticism, and talent but need opportunity. That's how you get better. |
We're not afraid to have expectations. |
We're trying to cover all the scenarios, all the possibilities, ... The one thing we've had is time. That's been the great thing. We've got scouting reports on everybody. |
We've hit the wall as a team. Our guys have played a lot of minutes and were having mental lapses, and the common things we just didn't get done. It was an indication of a basketball team that has hit the wall. We were giving it up on the defensive end and we were really lacking. |
Well, it's important and what it does is help our players. That there's an appreciation for what we do. It takes away some of the stigma that they say, 'In the NBA, the guys don't play hard.' I don't agree with that. Teams play hard in this league. You get out there and try to play 82 games. I just think these guys make it look so easy because of their skill level that people think they're just going through the motions. |
Well, not to take anything away from Miami. But guys, that was a gift. |
What a game, historically, to be a part of. |
What a resilient group. After last night, all the fanfare today. ... I don't know where they got it from. |
What a resilient group. I don't know where they got it (energy) from. The just reached down and dug it out. I'd say they surmounted a lot of odds. |
