That's where it starts ? get the effort so you don't beat yourself that way and then playing intelligent basketball. You just want to give yourself a chance to play your best. If you don't beat yourself in this league, you win a lot.

The league itself should not put any coach or any organization in position that you're better served to lose than win. That's why the change in the lottery was great. They took that conflict of interest away. They need to take the conflict away from the Clippers gaining financially and with home-court advantage by losing.

The league needs to step in and take away any perceived incentive to lose. But also, I don't think you do yourself any good trying to pick who you'll play. Sometimes, you try to set yourself up for something that may not work out. But I think that just the idea that you could be better served to lose rather than win probably needs to be taken care of.

The positive is they found something they can fix. It's been a string of bad fortune for him injury-wise, but we're happy the doctor has been able to locate something we can do something about.

The starters did a good job to start the game. The bench, inexplicably, is bereft of energy and intensity, and we have all young guys who are trying to carve out a career. I don't get it.
|
The things we need to improve on are glaring. We are where we deserve to be.
|
The way we're playing ... we're offensively inept. Last year, the 3-point shot was a huge weapon for us. This year, it's a huge detriment.
|
There are some things we could have done better, I think, that could have changed the result. Our guys are competitive and are playing a lot more minutes than they probably should. There's a lot of things that we can be proud of.
|
There have been a lot of questions about the use of their bench. How can you question a team that's in first place (in the Atlantic Division)?
|
There is no question that he will be competitive and high energy. But how effective he would be, really, I don't have any idea. We'll have to see.
|
There will be a lot of sacrifices that have to be made. We've sort of protected ourselves in case we're not as healthy as we hope to be. If everybody's healthy, there's only 240 minutes to go around. It'll be challenging.
|
There will be things we'll have to correct. I thought we played a cleaner game as far as being efficient. We're just struggling.
|
There's a lot that goes into winning and a lot that goes into losing. Our second-half defense just led to another close loss.
|
There's going to be some bumps in the road certainly. You don't sit out that long in this competitive of a league and make it back the you were playing before. You saw tonight he started out great and then he couldn't make (shots).

These guys are professional guys and they're all professional basketball players so we should expect to play well and play hard.
