He's a humble guy and the first impression was a good one, I thought. The first thing he came in and said was that it was all about the team, and that's good because we're pretty close after all we went through.
The positive today is that we just know we can play with anybody at any time. Going into next week, we'll start it all over again. Everybody will be back to 0-0.
We are pretty much in a situation where we need every game now. We need to play as hard as we can to get a victory.
It felt great to get to this point. But we have to stay humble.
When coach did what he did, I didn't want it to happen. But it was probably the best thing he could do for us. We've won four straight and everyone has it out of their minds.
When Earl is on the court, good things happen. He gets us into our offense quickly and gets us some good catch-and-shoot possibilities on the perimeter.
Coach is telling us over and over about effort. We've got to stop talking about effort. Everybody's got to go out there and play hard.
He told D.J. in the locker room that he would be the go-to man next season and if you know that then you might as well stay. I think he's leaning toward coming back.
It's an honor to play for him. This team has fought real hard to get where we've gotten. Four weeks ago, we could have let the season go, but we've fought hard.
I tried to get it up on time because I didn't know how much time was left on the clock. I just missed it.
