 Dennis you guys got the Wizards tonight and this will be the third match-up already this season What stands out to you when you watch the film on what it'll take tonight to get the win? Just trying to keep they go two guys under control easier said and done obviously, but You know we follow the game plan. I think we got a pretty good scout on them and If we execute we can get a win. I know a lot of the guys were out the other night against the Bucks But you were one of those guys that kind of led that charge What have you just seen from playing that point position that you've been able to kind of get guys going and kind of be that difference maker in energy starter My seven year in the league, you know, I'm saying it ain't really nothing That I'm new to or that I'm not accustomed to I'm just going out there trying to win the game and Whatever come from that come from it Whether I need to get some people involved to get to Iraq or you know take a charge Whatever all that's just a byproduct of trying to win. So That's all I go out there and try to do you said if you follow the game plan Has going off script from the game plan in the early stages been the biggest problem and the slow starts Well, I think that's problematic with anything you do, you know, whenever you You got a plan you got to have discipline Regardless of what it is if everybody on the same page You know, you give yourself a better chance to win communication everybody's speaking the same language. That's always important. So Yeah, game plan discipline is a key. It's been key for us and our wins early in the year And it's gonna be keep moving forward As of that, how how have you seen the conversations with low management? Maybe change over the years from where you were maybe a rookie to now where you know teams are maybe more cautious than Than usual sometimes like first example last game where some guys sat some guys sat during the game How have you seen those conversations changed in the league? Well, I think ultimately People are trying to look out for the players best interest, you know, whether it's You know, they sit them to keep them rested and things and fresh like that I don't know. It's it's new like my first year and I play with dirt and that's a guy You know, he stayed with one team forever You know, you just always You know, he was always out there. So it's it changes, you know, the league is gonna change. It grows It gets better, you know, I'm saying so I Don't really, you know, the low management thing is like I said, it's supposed to be for the better the players So that's what it's useful. And I know for you guys players I'm sure you guys want to play so I guess how do you balance that as a player? No, you want to play but hey team says it's been the best. How do you kind of balance that obviously you guys Yeah, of course everybody want to play everybody want to play but it come down to knowing your body and know what you can do So it's different for each and every person. I know me personally if I feel good, I'm I'm gonna play so That might not work for everybody and sometimes it's not always the smartest thing for me to do like I'd be like Alright, I feel it. I feel alright. I could play and then whole time. I'm going out there missing something else up So the people that's calling the shots, they know what they're doing they professionals this or they want to school for like We play basketball in school and they learn how to take care of us while they was in school So you got a lot of people do their job, man, you know what I'm saying Has this schedule felt tough though when it comes to just look at looking at the amount of back-to-back But you guys have played in and the amount of that's coming up as well on another trip like this with one in it I don't really too much look look ahead like that. You know what I'm saying? I just taking one day at a time I don't even know what today is. I just I know we got a game today and then we stay in the night here Like that's just how I look at it. I don't think Two three days from now, you know, I just take care right now With this bench you guys I think day around said like just the energy of you guys I think dough said you got to change the game What's your mindset when you come in with this group? It feels like the energy you guys three union even Royce is contagious So what's kind of the mindset from your perspective when you guys come in the game? Personally, I try to impose my will on the game, you know, I try to impose my will, you know And like I said, I'm just trying to win like I'm trying to win I Learned from one of my coaches on the next to try to break it down in three-minute segments So I try to impact the game as much as I can in three minutes and not worry about the next three whenever it comes But the whole thing is just win man. Have everybody feel like they're part of the game compete at a high level and You know the winning will come from that You mentioned when you play with Dirk the dirt was Dirk someone at that point It was he playing trying to play every game Rose you a little more cautious with his body With dirt how dirt was that yeah, he won't he was playing there again. He just ain't practice He always play he just wouldn't practice it go and practice and get a massage and shit like that But now you play every yeah, every chance he got he played You know, but like I said, it's a new it's it's new technology and things like that and new data So people looking out for the betterment of the players
