I wasn't really concerned about other teams. I was thinking about my own team. I've learned not to sell them short. I've learned when we're down 17 last night to Indiana before rallying to win the game is not over. They battle, and they like to play. We know we have some shortcomings but they try to stay organized, they move the ball, they try to play together, and when you do that, success is going to follow at some point it's just a matter of time.

I get the impression sometimes that people think there's some sort of magic dust that the coach can sprinkle over the guys to make them aware of everything. We talk to our guys every day about exactly where we are in the race. With certain groups, that works really well. With others, it might not.

Tyson didn't do much this summer, from what I've seen, compared to last summer when he was here almost 75 days. It's the old thing where your agent tells you don't do anything until you get a contract, and a lot of guys think that literally means don't do anything. It really means don't play basketball.
