Coach Talk

Captain Hindsight
Listen, Captain Hindsight, we do certainly respect the confidence. It's a bold move to play a starter with zero points (D'Andre Swift), while still earning the win! All we ask is to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Can you imagine how silly we'd look if we let it happen in the playoffs?
