PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT (SEE COMMENTS FOR FULL):
03:34 …It stands out. So as he gets his reps in his experience, it's great to see he does what we all call "control the controllables." And he does that consistently and he's gonna get rewarded for that. So, and our team is gonna benefit.
04:10 We we know you don't want to be on an average team. We know you want to win, but this particular team has been average. It's 20-20. So given how this year has gone, has it been difficult to maintain the mindset of not wanting to do anything reckless and mortgage the future, in your words?
04:33 Yeah, we're all human. Like, your imagination can run wild at times, but first, like, anybody who's going to demand something of a franchise organization, like, it's built on trust and communication. And the accountability, again for me, for anybody who puts that jersey on, is to play your best. Like, have I played my best all year? More times than not, but there's been some lulls. The challenge of trying to figure out how we put all these pieces together has been been difficult, very inconsistent, but it can't kill your vibe of having optimism that you can figure it out. So yeah, it's a daily challenge. You gotta remind yourself to just have fun and play with joy like we did tonight. The rest of it will kind of work itself out.
05:36 Felt like a major reason you guys survived tonight was Wiggins, particularly when you were off the floor, he gets — just his aggressiveness. How much do you need him to be that aggressive second scorer? And how much are — is it fine when he kind of slips into what's really become a very good 3-and-D type player?
05:58 Just a — I mean, aggressive, it can look a lot of different ways. Like tonight, there were a couple iso possessions where he was trying to take his guy off the dribble, get into the paint. He got rewarded with some fouls, trips to the line. There were a couple of possessions, make or miss. He was trying to get — be aggressive to catch and shoot. Like you said, his 3-and-D type of thing. But obviously with JK out, Draymond missed the last two games, that scoring bump does help. Like, we've been struggling to get over that 100 mark a couple games and when he's aggressive, looking to score, it helps us for sure. How he does it, that's kind of up to how he sees the game.
06:46 Why is it impossible to deny Steph?
06:48 I mean, because he just so, like, he done seen it all. So it's like if you deny him — and his team — I think it's because of his teammates. It's not because of him. Like, it's h to denynot somebody when four other players are trying to be — you know what I mean? It's like they're trying to give him the ball. Like, one time I thought we had him. And I lost him for one second and they swung it to Looney and Looney was already handing it off to him. They just two steps ahead of everybody, like, his teammates.
07:16 The Wiggins drive, the kick to Looney —
07:18 The kick to Looney and I fell asleep, Steph getting the corner treys is, like — it's just like how — how do y'all even see what's going on? But, like, you can just tell, like, I don't think it's so much of Steph, because everybody know how great he is, moving without the ball with the ball. But I think his teammates plays a huge role in that, too. Like, every time they touch the ball, they like, "Where he at?" You know what I mean? So either he's coming, either you trying to deny him on the top side, he's cutting for a layup, or your low man gotta pull in, they got Buddy Hield in the corner. So like, they did good, man.
