Larry Brown Beginning Quotations

We're going to shut him down a little bit. Hopefully, he'll be back at the beginning of next week and we'll know a little bit more. Hopefully he'll be ready to play. If not we'll worry about that then.

At the beginning of the game, the first four or five plays they just got to the front of the rim with nobody helping. That was a pretty good indicator of how it went.

We cut it to seven at the beginning of the third quarter, and then I don't remember us making a pass, except to them.

We didn't have Steve Francis with us in practice, and that's going to impact us. We missed a lot of good shots. We had a bad beginning and a horrible third quarter.

Dr. Callahan told me let's shut it down awhile and give him some time to rest because he hasn't done anything (like this) in two years, ... It's a lot different than working out on your own and then all of sudden being in this kind of environment. So we're going to shut it down a little bit. Hopefully he'll be back the beginning of next week. We'll know a lot more then.

A lot of what you just said is going to determine who's going to play. The guys that are committed to hustle back, make the extra pass, take the good shot, are probably the ones who are going to be out there in the guts of the game, or maybe at the beginning of the game.

We had a bad beginning and a horrible third quarter.
