George Karl Time Quotations

I think this series we've spent too much time talking about what we have to do rather than just playing. That's why the last couple of game plans have been simpler. Trying to do little things rather than saturate the brain. I've always felt in the playoffs there is a balance between giving them too much information. We have so much information. We have a 280-page book on the LA Clippers.

I will talk to him and see what's happening. He told me and the staff at halftime that he couldn't go. Now, there's stuff filtering out that there's frustration there. We'll see.

I think he'll be able to play sometime in this series if we need him.

You always spend a little more time watching the guys you coached, to see how they're playing. And there's no question that when I check scores, I still go to the Nuggets scorer faster than any other scores. I have a lot of love for the players and a lot of love for the city.

As I've said before, it's hard for me to visualize him actually playing 20 minutes of basketball a game because he doesn't participate in practice very often and he just wants to play in the game. That philosophically doesn't make any sense to me. I think he has a big- time heart. I think he's a big-time competitor and he did a hell of a job in the second half against Brand in Game 1.

All I know at halftime is he told us he couldn't go.
