Byron Scott Next Quotations

No fear or concern at all. We're going to take it for what it is, a real important game for us. We probably have to win the next few games, simple as that.

I would love to play here. I would love to stay here and play in Oklahoma City next year. I think our guys are at home here. I think the fans have been unbelievable. Out of our 12 home wins, I think the fans out there have won half of them. So, I would prefer to stay here next year.

David will be an integral part of improving our team and helping me get them to the next level.

It was just too many things going on player-wise that I didn't like that I wasn't going to be able to deal with the next year. So I wasn't going to put myself in the situation. No coach wants to go through that type of stuff when you have mutiny.

It's just sore. I don't think he'll be out any more than just tonight. We've got a good couple of days before we go to Utah for this next road trip.

It was our option, and we exercised it, so he's set for next year. But I don't think it would be a stupid thing to go to him this summer and say, 'look, let's sign a five- or six-year deal and keep you here for a while,' and when Chris Paul's is up, do the same thing.

We just have to win these next five games to give ourselves the opportunity. That's it.

We just stunk. We got tentative, we were passing up shots. It's what we call just getting tight. The next five days of practice are going to be hell. By the end, they're going to be wishing they had a game.

I don't think Chris will play (today). I would love to just let him relax for the next two games and see how he feels for Monday.

I don't think Chris will play tomorrow. I would love to just let him relax for the next two games and see how he feels for Monday. Right now, I think he's still pretty banged up. I know how bad he wants to play, but I don't think it would be in his best interests to play the next two games at least.
