Those guys on the floor really spilled their guts.

We tried to get Carlos on the floor a lot more with Rip (Hamilton). He got a lot of guys involved and overall did a great job for us, even though he fouled out.

Chauncey looked a lot livelier. A lot of guys looked a lot more livelier tonight.

As well as he's playing, all five guys have to be locked into him. Nobody's going to take him one-on-one and prevent him from getting wherever he wants. He's too quick and too good. All five guys have to be in a position to help.

It's a credit to the way these guys came into camp and came in focused. They've made some big plays. I thought we could get off to a good start but you can't expect to go 20-3.

Our guys have to be stimulated mentally. I've always said this team gets bored at times. When you're forced to react, forced to move, you don't really have a chance to maybe think about getting bored. You just go out and your instincts take over.
