We had a bad beginning and a horrible third quarter.

We didn't have Steve Francis with us in practice, and that's going to impact us. We missed a lot of good shots. We had a bad beginning and a horrible third quarter.

I've watched him forever. I very rarely see him smile or get excited. I'd love to see that. I don't know if that's his nature. I've commented to him numerous times that when things are going bad we have to have him with good body language.

Channing couldn't get out. That's a bad play on my part.

I have chest pains after every bad game. Nothing has changed. I feel bad when we lose and this has been a year when we've lost a lot so it's not something that's fun. But Lisa just thought I need to get checked before I got on the plane (Wednesday night).

I didn't look at it as a bad thing. I put him back in the game (with 18 seconds left) to have him guard. I don't mind that; I envy that.
