I got the flu and some people thought it was worse than that, so Lisa was being cautious and told me to stay away, Isiah told me to stay away, and when she gave me permission to come back I came back. |
I had a lot of sleepless nights. |
I hadn't had too many guys that didn't realize you're trying to help them and make them better. You want to be fair. I've never seen a happy team losing. If you're happy and enjoying it you should be doing something else. |
I have a new appreciation because I'm with him longer now, and I watch him play and grow so that makes me feel good. I can see his game, from my perspective getting better. My friends that call me that watch him play say how much they think he's improved, and he's trying to do what we want. But I think as a team, when he went down in the Minnesota game we didn't play as well as we have been. |
I have a new appreciation for him because I'm with him longer now. Watching him play and grow as a player and a person so that makes me feel good ... just hearing my friends call me that watching him play how much they think he's improved and he's trying to do what we want. |
I have always had a pretty good feel for him. |
I have chest pains after every bad game. Nothing has changed. I feel bad when we lose and this has been a year when we've lost a lot so it's not something that's fun. But Lisa just thought I need to get checked before I got on the plane (Wednesday night). |
I haven't had this opportunity in a long time. I've learned a lot from this season, and hopefully I'll be better for it. |
I heard he said he was out until the All-Star break, so I don't have to answer it any more. That's what I heard, so he's out until the All-Star break and we'll evaluate after the All-Star break. |
I heard it. I grew up coming to this place. I never imagined that would ever happen to me. Obviously, that was very special. |
I honestly think that if you ask each one of them they'd tell you they're competing at a high level. I don't know if everybody understands that we need everybody doing that every possession, especially when we're shorthanded, we're young and inexperienced. |
I hope he wants what I want. I hope he wants to win games, make his teammates better. That's the only thing that really matters. I heard he wants to play like Allen. I heard he wants us to play like Phoenix. I don't get caught up in that. I thought he was playing great and if he plays like he played before he got hurt we'll win games next year. |
I hope I can make a difference. I'm going to try my hardest to make this franchise proud of the team we put out there. |
I hope there's a lot more like him. We'd all be better for it. |
I hope we get players in here that want to defend. I hope the players we keep, that's a priority. |
