Doc Rivers Obviously Quotations

Obviously whenever you can improve your team you're going to do that -- with a veteran or a young guy. But we're in games.

Obviously a home game against Atlanta, you hope you can win. We're not playing well right now. It's frustrating to lose this game.

Obviously to end the game the way we did with 10 points wasn't in the plans. They attacked and I thought they were the aggressor and I thought, when we were attacked, we went back on our heels a little bit.

He's back. We had another talk. It went well, but actions obviously speak louder than words.

Well, that was not a pretty game obviously for us. I never thought we had anything going for the most part. I thought the effort was up and down. I thought Washington was far more focused than us.

We keep talking about the future and obviously you see all the talent, young talent but it's still potential. It's great to have potential but it's better to have it realized.

It's tougher obviously after a loss because guys are down emotionally. On days after a loss sometimes you've really got to snap their focus in. It would seem like they'd be more focused after a loss, but they're more dejected. Their confidence is down. You spend have the time trying to work them into it. Today we didn't have to do that.

It was an interesting game, I'll say that. I was really happy besides the ending. I was just really proud of our young guys. They just kept fighting. I obviously thought we had a chance to win the game. I just wanted to teach execution to the young guys.

We were playing a team that was obviously playing desperate and you could see that play in them. We're loose and we played aggressive.

They're good. They've obviously hit a tough patch, but you know it's not going to last. Baron Davis is a hell of a player. He's one of the best point guards in the league. Everyone goes through a tough stretch. I just hope theirs lasts one more game.
