I hope he comes back, but I honestly don't know. He's been a little bit to himself. |
I still think we can be the best team in the league. There's a thin edge at this time of the season. But with five home games remaining, we've still got a lot to shoot for. |
I think the guys would like Kirk to get back into a position where he can get us 25 minutes a game. |
I think they want to get better. We had a really good practice on Friday. We got the kids' attention and now they're on a roll. |
I told the guys I'm not going to say a whole lot, but that we cannot go up there, bust our fannies to sweep, and then come back and stumble on our home court. We're going to have to play hard. That's what they need to understand. |
I wouldn't put anything past him. Whatever he says typically gets done. He's just never, ever let any of his handicaps hold him back at all. |
If we were sitting there with five losses instead of 10, I don't think we would have lost the (Washington) game. Instead we had 10 and every one of them knocks away at you a little. |
It all depends on how you practice. Chris didn't have a bad practice today, but I thought Daniel had a very good practice. Chris is a great on-ball defender, but Daniel is probably a more complete defender. |
It got our attention. We had some good motivation; everybody was counting us out. |
It just boiled down to a playing time issue with Salim (Stoudamire) here. He is a good kid. |
It was a good night. We always had a hand in the shooters' face. We switched well. Our quickness enabled us to get a lot of long rebounds and convert them into points on the break. The guys are learning what we're teaching them. |
It was a whale of a game. That's my favorite memory of the place. |
It was one thing to drop out of the Top 25 after we won by 30 at Utah and broke their long home-court winning streak. But to see that banner? It got our attention. We had some good motivation; everybody was counting us out. |
It won't require surgery, so all he'll have to do is rehab it. |
It's one of the last things we talk about before we come out. But we never, ever practice it. |
