Last year, our other guys ran into the problem of sitting and watching Crawford and Thomsen. Players used to get out of their way. This year, they know they'll get the ball and they know we need them to score.

Parks was open, just sitting there. It was just a scramble and then just a little jump shot.

We didn't want to be stagnant. We wanted three or four guys besides Zack taking shots.

There's a lot of poking and prodding going on. And a bunch of guys are sitting there watching it, just scribbling all these notes. It's pretty awkward.

I've told these guys, we're a good team. We don't have great players like we did last year.

These guys are good players. They're experienced guys. We know them from last year. They bring a different dimension. They're very active, athletic and quick. They are probably the best all-around big guys we've played so far.
