 Alani for this just trip. I know you were dealing with an illness but with the stretch that we've had does this feel like a second road trip or does it feel like a part of a whole entire six-game road trip um a little bit of both this kind of reminds me of like the rodeo road trip in a way when I played for San Antonio you know you go on the road and yet all start breaking you back on the road for another X amount of days so um it still feels like we're on the road I mean I kind of still remember my last room number from the hotel prior to this so but it's good I think um you know the win that we had in Cleveland and just the energy off the court as far as our teammates and us coming together has been very um that's been great and I think that's gonna transfer on to the court today. And for you in the illness are you do you feel like you're back at a hundred percent right now? Oh yeah I'm back at a hundred percent I'm back to moving and grooving dancing a little bit singing the showers and stuff so you know God is good right now. Thank you. For you Lonnie just kind of like as you have to watch this team a little bit as you were recovering what was the biggest takeaway between the Cleveland game versus the previous two games where the energy maybe wasn't there as much or the effort you think? Um you know just the willing to stay together the willingness to stay together you know especially after two hard losses like losing the Detroit and Charlotte that can deplete you a lot and I think we bounced back in a very charismatic way but it just shows our mental fortitude and our strength as a team you know we understood our what we're trying to accomplish and where we're trying to get to and you know we can't worry about the past just at the present time and trying to accomplish and dominate that day. Who were the loudest voices before that Cleveland game just in terms of trying to make sure that everybody's head was right and everybody stayed together? Thank everyone honestly there wasn't no one ban army this time usually it's like Dennis Sholder might be talking or Dennis Smith or Doe or Dorian and stuff so I think as a team collectively going into that game specifically we all knew we got to we got to pick it up we got to step it up you know we're trying to get to this playoffs make this playoff run and get to this push we know what we have to do you know having players like CT back available and playing playing his game and doing what he did obviously gives a gives us a huge boost in confidence within each other and we just kind of continue to stack the days. You mentioned about knowing what you have to do and the last time you guys were here and took on the Magic team things didn't go the way you guys wanted what do you remember about that game and just kind of what have you taken away from the seven games since then? They brought it from start to finish you know since as soon as the tip-off started their energy was very apparent defensively and offensively and I think you know we didn't really start off with the same if not more energy as what they were bringing on to that game and it kind of showed you know so I think that was one thing is just consistently bringing that game that that game focused on that energy every single game you know no matter who we're playing into what it might be and the last seven games I mean you know we have some pretty good wins we got some pretty bad losses as well but I think in the midst of it all we're finally getting everyone back together we have injuries some people out some games some people might be playing or whatnot like myself and stuff so you know we're kind of close back to full force and I think that's the best part is having everyone together so we can all play together and play the right way and you know this is one of those games. You came back and talked about getting CT back what can Cam Johnson bring when you get him back? Just his size alone creates a lot of different things you know as far as the defensive end doing what he has to do but also his ability to shoot and stretch the floor he's a great shooter you know he's also a very vocal leader sometimes here and there as well which is a great thing to have and he does have a presence you know within our teammates and everyone that where we listen to him and you know we trust him every time he's used the ball 10 times out of 10 I think it's going in. How has it been just kind of watching him deal with the process of starting and when he gets hurried has to come up the bench and now he's back to start. How have you seen him handle that process a little bit? Very professionally very mature like you know he understands that it's not about starting or being on the bench at the end all be all we're trying to win and I think that's something that he understands and he consistently brings you know his energy and his character is or a personality never gets deterred or it never bothers him you know he just knows when I'm on the court I'm here to play to the best of my capability and show you know why I deserve to play on the court be on the court and you know we're trying to win. You can kind of relate to that in a way right because last year you were starting with the leg because you could hurt and come up the bench. What was that like for you and how do you kind of relate to maybe can't have to go through that role when he was coming off the bench? Just control the control boost you know at the end all be all if your agenda is to win and you want the team to win then they shouldn't really affect or you know bother you in any type of way because then go is to win and if you win everybody eats at the end of the day so it doesn't really bother me but I don't think Cam it has you know affected Cam in any way shape or form which is one of the greatest things because a lot of players in the league have egos and prize that might disrupt what they might do or their confidence and whatnot so his ability to adjust has been it's really great. It's not often that you get to spend three days in one city on the road trip just what are your plans after hopefully getting this win here tonight and getting to spend time at Disney? Sleeping. I'm going to sleep my tail off that is my end goal my first goal and miss missed goals that's a thing okay but I know we have Thursday off so I've never been to Disney so maybe I could try and sneak in there for the one time and have some fun.
