Kiki Vandeweghe Both Quotations

That always bothers me. That was one of the major challenges, to change the culture (of the team). . . . I do think you're going to get that type of thing once in a while.

It's my job to worry about that stuff, of course. The common ground is they love basketball, they're both passionate about the game, both want to win. Starting from there, there is hope.

I've always tried to take a longer view and tried not to apply Band-Aid solutions. This is a very talented team. Both George and I like this team a lot and wanted it to have a chance to play together. But, having said that, we're out there trying to stay abreast of what's going on in the league.

When a player goes through an injury and doesn't play the way he wants to, sometimes rumors start. When they first started, I talked to him about it. I knew it bothered him because he liked it here. . . . It puts a bit of uncertainty in your head, and that's never a good thing.
