The last couple years they've been good, but it's just a great group of guys, and they were willing to take the vision that we gave them in the beginning of the season, and we started off really well, which I think helped. But as I mentioned, Andre's sacrifice, David Lee's sacrifice, their willingness to accept roles and keep pushing really was the key to the whole thing.

I'm just thrilled for so many people. Our players, mostly, but the people in our organization - Rick Welts, Joe Lacob and Peter Guber and the whole group. It's just a phenomenal group of people. I think as a coach you just appreciate kind of the big picture a little bit more.

Don't think shoot. Soon as you start thinking you miss.

I never ever gave ownership a thought. My thoughts before I retired were coaching and broadcasting.

We had a lot of luck this year and our guys took advantage. Wow. What a night.

I have always been very comfortable behind a microphone. I love talking about basketball, I love being around people, I love being around the game, the travel and the excitement around the arena.

The future is coming so fast, we can't possibly predict it; we can only learn to respond quickly.
