    Hmm... expecting players to have career years in order to be a successful team.

    This makes me want to throw up.

    "I want to play a certain style and I believe we can win playing that way."

    Bruh, that isn't going to win you anything in this league. Playoffs are all about matchups, roster flexibility, going from big to small and slow to fast depending on who you play.

    Wtf?

    This is basic knowledge of the game. Phil Jackson, Jerry Sloan.... there's probably others.

    Does this mean the Toyota Center is going to sell pringles now during games?

    Lol. The way you motivate players to play better defense is to have a better offense.

    D Antoni about the rockets a year ago.

    Better defense. If ppl are comfortable offensively. They do more defensively. That's how you play defense, if you're happy.

    Lol

    "we find that when players are happy with thier role on offense, the will give more energy defensively. There is no secret way to defend, it has to do a lot with effort" - Mike d'antoni

    Les looks old and deranged. Can we void this contract because of certifiable insanity? Wasn't Sterling forced to sell the Clippers because of his mental issues?

    Best line from Les: "To all those naysayers out there..."

    Why would this be diff here compared to Melo in Ny?

    D Antoni has no reply. Every situation is diff. Mumbles his way out of it. Melo came at the end of the year and we couldn't get it going
