I would never predict a run like that. Last season, that's beyond reality. I think we can go 25-14. I think we can play 10 games over .500, even more than (that) over .500, and that would be a great run. Any time you go 30-15 or something like that, that's pretty incredible basketball.

Good observation. I don't think I need to answer that right now.George Karl
Pierce is one of the truly special players in the game, he is one player the true basketball fan wants to come to see. He can pretty much do what he wants out there. I think he could get 15 assists or 20 rebounds if that's what he wanted to do.

This is a harder game to play than most people think it is, where there's a little bit of an energy adrift.

I think in general whenever we play Phoenix, we think our defense has to be figured out and tonight it was our offense that beat us. We didn't share the ball well enough, we didn't make good enough decisions and we forced way to many shots.

Andre, to me, is our guy. He makes us go. When he plays his 'A' game, we're a very tough team to beat. Andre has shown me he's a big-time point guard in this league. Can we do better than that or change it where we can be better, I don't know. But I think Andre can be part of the equation no matter what happens.

There's a point in (every NBA season when) talent stops being important and chemistry and character become more important, and I think Phoenix is probably in that stretch. It's a situation that's got to be handled and probably once it's handled you're happy about it. There's some growing pains to it. There might be a loss that you might not have had, but in the same sense he might win a playoff game that the (team) would've lost.
