It was more something that happened (Wednesday) night than a cumulative thing. It was something that happened during the game and afterward. We're going to handle it internally. |
It was obvious we weren't getting it done with what we had. That's disappointing, but it was time to do what was best for the future. |
It's another part of the growing-up process for our young guys. What is happening now won't be a problem in the future. |
It's been a hard and stressful adjustment on everyone. But it was my family, and they had nowhere to go. One of the fun parts though will be getting to see my nephew play for his senior year. I've heard from family members how good he is, but now I'll see firsthand. |
It's just Grant being Grant. He's cautious and wanting to make sure everything is OK and he's not hurting himself more. |
Jerry Reynolds was trying to dribble the clock out because he didn't know Scott was closing in on the record. But then Reynolds ended up scoring the goal to give Scott the record. |
Steve is still a good player in this league. Whether he goes from good to great is going to be on Steve. |
That's what you want your best player to do. You want your best player to step up in that fashion. |
The fans look at the game the way we have presented the game. That's just the way basketball is now and somehow we have to change it back. |
The guys are putting in the time and it's a great sign that so many of them are already in working well together. I think we are a playoff team. I think we have a pretty good chance. I like where we're going and I really like the pieces that we have. |
The things we've done might look frantic, but they are calculated moves. Our objective is to win a championship. Being mediocre isn't OK with me, with ownership, or with [Coach] Brian [Hill]. We're taking steps with a goal of winning a championship. |
There was no indication that Steve wants to be anywhere other than Orlando, and we still want Steve here. Steve is still a vital part of our franchise. We need Steve to win basketball games. |
There was nothing that made a lot of sense to us. I decided at the last possible minute not to do it. |
There's no need to panic, and this could actually make our team stronger in the long run. We have to look and see what's out there, but there's no need to get somebody who is going to take three to six weeks to catch up. We'll look at who's out there, but we're not going to do anything to hurt our team. |
Unfortunately and fortunately, we're not that far out. We have to make hay, but there's still room for us to make the playoffs. Guys have to come together, get on the same page and understand that we haven't thrown in the towel. |
