We get along well as people, [but] on the basketball court, he's got a different belief about how the game should be played. Our relationship is first of all as a coach-player, not as a friend … he's doing what he has to do. You weed out players that don't fit in the system. It didn't work out for him, and he was straightforward with me. If that's what he wants to do, then that's his prerogative. I'm not the one making the decision. |
