I think he's missed so many games and so many practices, he's bound to be way behind. This is a marathon and we've got to get him ready. If we've got to use the games like practices, we'll have to do that. |
I think his best basketball is in front of him, |
I think if you look at the M.O. of this team all year, we have had trouble making stops. We have turned the ball over, we lead the league in turnovers, points of turnovers, and assist-to-turnovers. I keep telling them if you want to play playoff basketball, you've got to take care of the ball and execute. We don't get it and we have to keep working on it. |
I think it is necessary to sit down and work for years and years to get it right. I think that's the main thing, that's what the emphasis has got to be on: individual work. |
I think it'll make both better. |
I think once we struggle it seems that it just snowballs, ... Our young kids continue to play hard; they're kind of fearless. I think everybody else seems like they're just afraid to make a mistake. |
I think our guys are generally motivated within themselves, but we have a great deal of pride in our school. We're proud of what the girls have done, and we're proud of what we've done and it's truly a family over here. |
I think Steve is strong enough to guard [shooting guards] and quick enough to guard [point guards]. And he's got grit. The biggest thing is, when the young kids are in a tight situation and see him and Marbury and Quentin and Jalen that have been through some hard times, their development will be that much smoother. |
I think that's been the case all year. We don't take anything away defensively, we don't get loose balls, we don't get long rebounds. You rarely see us get a steal. And then we turn the ball over so many times without getting a shot and if you have any deficiencies at all on defense, you're getting killed in transition. |
I think that's where people really started to take notice. To beat those caliber of teams, you can't ignore that. |
I think the three-pointer has merit, but I'm a little confused about the distance. I don't want it to be such an easy shot that it really becomes more important than anything, because I don't think that's the purpose. |
I think there are some that probably are tuning us out and I think some that are making progress. |
I think they love being in this environment. I didn't read what Isiah said, but he never .expressed that to me. |
I think to play him and have this thing carry on is really unfair. I want it to be his decision (to come back) when he feels comfortable he can play and not worry about getting hit, because he certainly hasn't played the same way since the injury. He's not aggressive at all. You can really tell the difference because he was playing at such a high level before that. |
I think Tony's played him a lot. For the most part he did a tremendous job on him. |
