We've had a lot going on all year, extracurricular things. I think it weighed everybody down. (On the) first day, it does (feel better). Some guys said it felt better in Florida. They said the feel was better. Hopefully, the attitude will change everything.
More Quotes from Nick Collison:
Things weren't going so well before, so this gives you a little bit of fresh air. It's kind of like a new season, even though we've already said that once this year. But it is again and we only have 25 games left, so we're trying to push out and get a good feeling about our team.Nick Collison
They just wore us down. Our play in the first half was a little bit of fool's gold. Ray Allen was unconscious, and we shot 60 percent. The second half, they played much better and we struggled.

He's played great. He's fun to watch and our team has played a lot better with him in the lineup. For me, I'm just trying to get back and play as well as I can when I'm in there and see how it shakes out. There is that part where you think about the future, but in the NBA there are a lot of good players. All you can control is your play while you're out there.

Obviously, it's only been one day, but it seemed like it was a little bit lighter mood. We are still down to business. Guys are playing hard. (Weiss) does a good job of communicating. Nate did a good job of disciplining. I can't say one is better than the other. A coach like Coach Weiss can be successful if (the players) are mature and don't let things slide. If they are self-motivated, then we will be successful.

This isn't football. You don't have to be the best team all season. In the tournament, it's one night.

Our schools should get five years to get back to where they were in 1963. If they're still bad maybe we should declare educational bankruptcy, give the people their money and let them educate themselves and start their own schools.
