Everybody's trying to get better, even myself,

We didn't get any stops. We are trying to get better defensively but we got beat by 30 points, so obviously we are not getting better defensively. ... Obviously if you get beat by 30 points then the coach can question your effort.

We're trying to get better, and we're not where we want to be -- but we've progressed. If we stay consistent on defense, we'll be fine. We'll get the easy baskets and then won't have rely on jumpers.

We're so many games in, we shouldn't be trying to find it. But that's what we're doing. That's what stage we're in right now. We're trying to get better defensively, and we got beat by [28], so, obviously, we're not getting better defensively.

It's just learning the game more. Just trying to approach it in a John Stockton-type of way, to where you don't play so much with your physical ability all the time. You have to think the game out a lot more. That's where I'm a lot better. I know the game a lot more. I see things before they happen a lot.

I still have yet to accomplish what I've been trying to do from Day 1.
