We believe we're going to be in the next series, too. |
We don't care if it's a young guy or old guy, we are looking for the group who is the best fit. But these veteran guys are smart, tough, they have experience. |
We got some good energy, and I thought we moved the ball a lot better at the start of the second half and we got out in transition. Antoine had a good run at the defensive end a little bit that got us out into transition. |
We had four or five three-on-two fast breaks where all three guys were running next to each other. We were in general not wide enough. |
We need some guys who make it work. Sometimes you just need guys to catch the ball and move the ball and get out of the way and create spacing and things like that. I haven't seen a lot of that so far, of guys really willing to do that. |
We'll see if we can make some adjustments, but we're certainly not going to panic. |
We're very happy to have him. |
We've gone very, very hard for six days. We haven't backed off them even one day yet. We went probably longer and harder [Sunday] ever than we have gone. We've had all this time of working real hard, and just mentally they need to do something else, play against somebody else. That'll be good for them. |
We've got very good young guys. I've said this for 10 years, and it's certainly true again this year, maybe more so than in a lot of years. Our scouting staff, they've done an unbelievable job uncovering good young players. |
When you're talking about roles, there could be offensive roles, ... but a guy can't decide that defense is not part of his role. |
You can dunk on him five times and he's going to be back there again the next time. |
You can't fear change in this business. |
You never want one of your best players going down with an injury. It's all also part of the game. We're already dealing with three veteran guys out, now a fourth veteran guy out, so some of these young guys are going to have to step up and play. |
