“If guys are struggling with their role, I might be a guy that they can come talk to about that. I'm just going to try to do anything I can.”
Fred Hoiberg
“Phil is a good personnel guy. I talk to him. He talks to me. I think I can have a little input.”
Romeo Crennel
“I just feel it is important for a guy if he is struggling, especially younger guys, to know what it's like, on their own. Not run to them every minute. Let them fight through it. He did that. That's why I admire what he did. I think it'll be good for him 10 years down the line.”
Jerry Sloan
“We talked about it all week. Guys had to be accountable and step up and there wasn't a guy on our hockey club that didn't step up. I'm excited for the kids because they worked hard for that victory. Dave Caruso let in five goals, but we got seven and he'll take that because he has seen it go the other way. I'm excited for the kids because they worked hard for that victory and we beat a good hockey club.”
John Markell
“We talked this morning. The best thing to do for me with David is not talk to you guys because if it's going to get [messed] up in the translation, it's not worth it. If I'm going to have somebody [upset] at me, I'd rather have it you guys than him. But we're fine. Everything's fine.”
Terry Francona
“Guys are figuring out their roles. My key role is not turning over the ball. When I come in the game and come out, we shouldn't be worse off than where we started.”
Jeff Hawkins
“Our guys responded, adjusted, and responded. Interesting enough, I talked to our guys all week about expanding their roles, and we had some guys expand their roles today.”
