Dwane Casey Trying Quotations

I'd like to see what the game brings. We're going in trying to win the game. I'm not going out trying to have a tryout. We'll do that Sunday in practice.

I think right now Fred is just trying to decide what he wants to do, whether he wants to coach, be in the front office or play. I think he could do all three. He still can make shots. He's very knowledgeable of the NBA to be in the front office or to be a coach. It's a good dilemma to have.

I think you have to have a focus on the road, a mental toughness on the road, that I think we're trying to find. That's the story of our season.

We're coaching to win first. Development will come along with that. I'm trying to create an environment of professionalism, working hard, playing hard.

These are young guys and we're trying to win. For me to build a winning environment, you have to try to win every night. These guys were scratching and diving for balls and they deserved to win.

That's growing pains. Hopefully Marcus will learn from it; nobody was trying harder than he was.

I'm trying to create an environment of professionalism, working hard and playing hard.

He's a one-man wrecking crew. We spent the whole night trying to figure out the offensive sets around where he was on the play. He's a great player. He's one of the guys you have to think about for Defensive Player of the Year.

You have to have focus on the road and a mental toughness, that's what we're trying to find.

I don't think the commissioner had any race intentions whatsoever with the new dress code. I just think he's trying to improve the image.
