We decided to go the way of trading and getting younger players. |
Most players in this league say they want consistency. |
The biggest difference is in the leadership. It was better for us. We had more coaches and mentors to help us. A lot of the younger players today suffer from a lack of direction. |
Instead of me telling them what they need to work on, I wanted to hear from them what they needed to work on. |
It's been made clear to all of us that a player should never leave the playing field and go into the stands. |
I would still like to get more athletic and have players that can really cover what's going on in the game. |
I've been in pressure situations before. All my life it's been about pressure and having to get it done. Just because you say it publicly, it does not make me afraid of it or make me shy away from it. |
I can't think of any NBA team over the last few years that lost three starters. And we replaced them basically with three guys who really haven't played in this league. |
