You hate to lose games. However, this year guys got a chance to play. Hopefully they now understand what it takes to get better. We knew this was going to be a trying year, one of learning and growing. |
You have to give that team something. Every time we gave them a shot, they knocked it down. They're just physically bigger than us at every position and they just know how to play. |
You have to keep giving them minutes. The more minutes they get, the more comfortable they're going to be. These guys all have talent; we just have to continue to work. |
You have to mature in this league, it just doesn't happen overnight, and I wish people understood that. It just gives them more of a barometer and (helps) make sure they understand what they have to work on and what they have to improve on. |
You just have to keep going over it. Last I checked, they had no pills, so you just have to keep going over it. That's all you can do. |
You know what he looked at me and said? He was like, 'Coach, just keep me humble, stay on me, keep pushing me, keep me humble, keep (me) focused on the big prize. |

You've got to give Atlanta credit. They sat in his lap. They wouldn't let him catch the ball in a good position. |
