As I said all summer long, we were a pretty good team (last season). The best thing to do might be to add a training camp. Not add a player, add a training camp. Sometimes that's all you need. We just need to sustain the special second half that we had last year. We don't need to upgrade.
More Quotes from George Karl:
As I've said before, it's hard for me to visualize him actually playing 20 minutes of basketball a game because he doesn't participate in practice very often and he just wants to play in the game.

I think he's a big-time competitor and he did a hell of a job in the second half against Brand in Game 1.George Karl

He's a young guy, so when he gets frustrated he kind of thinks the world's going to come to an end, and it's not. But when he's on, he's difficult. We talk a lot about how we would play him. I tell him that I'd probably double-team him all the time.
