But the guys did what they do and fought back. |
But we've all made spur-of-the-moment decisions that maybe we look back on and wish we hadn't made. |
Considering what is at stake [tonight], it was pretty close to being ideal. The fact that you can come in and take care of somebody, and get some guys out of the game and not over-play anybody, we'll see if it pays off for us. |
Detroit had their own agenda, which is to rest their guys, and Washington had motivation so that is understandable. That's why you play all 82. |
Detroit has great players. I never thought there would ever be a day that I would vote for a whole starting five to be on the all-star team, and I did. They have great players and a great team. |
Detroit has its own agenda, which is to rest its guys, and Washington has the motivation, which is understandable. So is the Orlando-Indiana game. That's part of it. That's why you play all 82 (games). |
During the game, if you're an injured player, a sport coat and slacks should be a bare minimum. And you should always appear to be professional when you're entering the arena. |
Eddie played real well last night. Considering he's still kind of feeling his way out there. As you see him get more and more comfortable, he'll be more aggressive. Learning what is and what isn't a foul. Once he gets used to it, he'll get better and better. |
Eddy was big for us but he was also a high turnover player and there were times when we went in another direction anyway, ... So, everybody's got to do it [offensively]. We don't have one guy who can do it. |
Even if the [money] was much smaller, you'd still feel some obligation to perform. But I don't think any of us said we expect Tyson to be a different player. |
Even though he was hurt ? he played some, didn't play some ? it was nice to have him around every day. There are few players who seem to see the plays before they actually happen, and he was one of them. |
Even though we had it pretty close at the half, they pretty much outplayed us beginning to end. |
Even when we got it close, Jamison got away from us. He's been a key guy whenever we've played against them. If we would've been able to do a good job on him and make him shoot a poor percentage, we've had some success. Arenas is normally going to have a pretty good game; it's hard to stop him. But Jamison got away from us. |
Every game he plays in, he's ... one of the toughest guys on the floor. He's got size, strength, athleticism, and he can play. He gives them one of the best players in the game, and you can see that they've played with a little more pop since he's been with them. He seems to have an effect on their group, the way they get after it a little bit. |
Every player in the league, when he is listed in the program, should have his career record next to his name. Just like the coaches do. |
