The head coach of the boss the top of Doc Rivers joins us on the AT&T -- AT&T your world -- departing -- how -- Yeah we're doing fine am I'm wondering and I'm not talk about last night's game -- opening night in Cleveland in the first game of an 82 game season if it's against -- arch -- on the east and if it's at their place for you had a hard time to win. Can that be a statement game in game one.

I don't know if they've been very -- didn't didn't -- the -- for sure. But I think pearl and help you know obviously. Because -- billions and narrowed you have that monkey talking about when you're going mirror. The blue I won't do in the congress listen anymore.

Right well what about last night dock obviously. A little bit of different atmosphere there did you did give -- chance -- to work on different things get different guys out there was useful.

Apparently some sort mobile solutions didn't who didn't look so much. How little Americans -- work or and so. And Obama didn't want to social work most of the -- set out. They're running out by the principally blue moon did obviously. You look at the numbers old days. But the first -- hope we don't reap the benefits that are often neglected all home. Independent reflection that we continue to play which -- and often that's. And a network that score that I couldn't bulletin board could have done so. -- and -- tomorrow's going to be good inflation towards. What we want to tomorrow.

You know -- Bill Belichick has often said there are no easy wins in the National Football League because it's the National Football League. Does that apply to the MBA. -- that there be some lights and it last night was one of a maybe it wasn't. The down the road you don't look at Tom and Alex somewhere approaching halftime it's a totally gone for dinner afterwards or whatever and our other not -- easy wins in the NBA.

Well you know -- who never comfortable obviously you're no different to improve our -- of course -- have a big league. Our -- court can come -- But up until the benefits are welcome to look around -- Gordon looked certain Edmund didn't know our. I'm not happy that I have to I'm gonna let well we know. Bullet -- not attuned to dementieva and unite the rest of the -- didn't play well in the third quarter is important to -- and -- the -- if you want to -- Little -- they want to give it. The Trojan independent -- is that all the.

At halftime of the TNT broadcast from Cleveland they showed a clip a view from the locker room and camera scenery behind the blackboard that you might have been drying on. They were you aware they were there indeed are you comfortable or uncomfortable the whole world hearing you say your team what will liberate -- what will set you free is everything being about winning and we're going to win the championship this year.

Well. I'm not comfortable with a camera in the locker market and Jenrette. I don't actually good for the game by the way I think it's so you sort of have to. And no. It's not like if concluded that both struggles so that part of it is not a big build the -- But you know what this group that this could be really important. Are there have been buried it to do more on the part of the team -- we don't let the children -- thought. No no good uniforms from -- and they can go. And then we -- although now with -- would look -- the -- been -- That the process to reduce the -- enough of those who what I was talking about. You know you've noted that that wouldn't and so until yes they are prudential will let you about it. And -- are did not look particularly don't.

obviously we all know about the Rasheed Wallace courtship we know about the the trip you guys you in the players took out there we know everything he can do we know everything about Odom. And it's a great acquisition are certainly seems to be. Marquis Daniels -- was kind of under the radar canoe tell us how that all went and what role he will play and know what kind of guy he has.

This individual could you know integrated -- our don't judge a book by its cover -- moon is pretty. But in absolute wonderful. Wonderful god you know flooding and then equipped Slobodan converted a couple of those go talk it and will. Opening all the -- than welcome to include. I didn't know what to do that coconut marking the end of world and I didn't know what bill -- person will. So -- been quiet when the potent that. Which you form your own fault but without the -- There and look what you're doing right Newton wonderful recognition the one of the Rayburn befriended. This summer and that didn't have a you have good people realized okay -- wouldn't have been fourteen. And who booted out of the bar on Google and look forward. -- true root of the finger salute to a potent. In Mexico Rhode that the group.

Will -- I mean is he the first guard off the bench as his job is to spell Rondo.

Well no one I think. Point guard at what I -- But that is let it can one point from the small forward position. No. Movie that -- outlook on the floor. As we move forward garden defensively. -- through all the fortunately fortune. The market in -- the ball doesn't -- remember the Cleveland. We actually do put -- at -- port we look through our notebook fault. When -- in the second quarter that they're -- purse the -- we can't look. But didn't the first Djokovic. Who dictated by twelve -- of.

If you put him on LeBron for a multitude India.

But it's router doubt no doubt about where you're also a little less -- all the never regret that the Clinton. Go to Tibet that I look to move through you know most annoying. You know -- something that actually. Yeah well we have -- didn't go in Michigan now look --

It's a fair to say that this year's bench with the advent of of of certainly Rasheed the market Daniel Shelden Williams and others. Is more diverse then the guys you had coming off the bench in the past more interchangeable may be more flexible and allows you to. Do more things get guys arrest all those kinds of things.

Well convince gun salute to two -- ago you're looking at absolutely go to the lessons that I thought last year but didn't know. We know being -- it says veterans. And then you know but they're both multi dimensional so you can do little bit different spots. Bloomfield road road. As you go real potent Clinton reinforced by our conclude well play in the fortified -- Our -- feel but it will want in the spot. Don't look good -- that it.

It dark with talk to you so many times about how you deal with. A young guys athletes who aren't yet mature who do stupid things and we remember. Talk and you'll I was -- Al Jefferson's. Collection of cars. What right now we're deal would talking about. In big baby. Big baby. Is in is in trouble let's face a big gave baby screwed up I'm just wondering. -- is it a blessing in disguise will this be a wake up call will affect these loosened some money and gonna deal with some public embarrassment will that help in the process. Of of teaching. Big baby something that you have to do on an almost daily basis.

Whether it. Not -- Melamine obviously both slow and Internet I feel less -- listen and and -- two point blatant lump low blow over. The disappointment. You know -- well located that it could -- you know. Including pin and happened to -- to mature and didn't know you computer over and over again and sometimes people didn't know. And then sometimes they don't like seeing it happen before then someone who can. And until then grouped under terrible. And in Logan then look up look what is considered that you know well that led government probably you to commit mistakes. -- angry -- America and our. You know looked upon as the -- would be put them you have to do. No but I've looked at boot I have been so good but still crowded assembly -- in the and -- that would -- bad -- got them. We moved the guard and right now ineptitude of the blue pill without open well. No it's not live bit that you want to happen. Put a lot of times it's it's one minute of it that -- judgment. They don't go on full well because you made the bad judgment and that that's what they have been met for the majority.

And this event oddly had a number of events events within it and I'm what are you organization's standpoint -- What was the anger and disappointment over the fact that he was out at 4 AM was the fact that his designated driver. Was intoxicated or was the fact that he smacked his friend who smacked him first broke the thumb.

Well good morning are apparently had impact and all -- it. I think it would take normal golf polymarker. You know. You don't have a lot of different things and the event. Well. Finding out about it -- Oakland what we've -- There and you know put -- good example of one misstatement to admit whispering. Into the next one and -- didn't -- furloughed out of control.

Will he be a different guy when he comes back whenever that is.

Look how well throw I don't know I don't expect a -- would change overnight. -- still -- got a lot of good undated June. That's sort of been -- you know look what they're doing well. I guess what religion improvement of the person but I don't expect him. The moon and you know matured over the attitude they -- started with twelve and any one of just let it workable.

Speaking of self improvement talk about -- those offseason the jump shooting and where you think he ranks. Among point guards in the NBA and I certainly don't expect you do -- negotiating on the air publicly for the organization. We've had this discussion is CA top five point guard in the NBA.

Well I -- you don't like attempted car could -- and fluctuate job usually you. Then that's no good without you're -- you're I don't think I don't even know who did that that would limit that is. Unbiased because I don't commit today yeah. I think he's done a wonderful job this former look at them it's ridiculous. No you just don't know -- incumbent or no. Resolution than he's gonna get better movement Jennifer love -- doing that well there's no economic dependent. But I couldn't -- quit Merrill. Can handle that flow are -- will go -- within hours. Of the day. We're kilometres are infant look remote -- who couldn't -- and they looked like -- come to let them.

Are you think you're gonna get the real deal done with him by Saturday night.

I have no idea and obviously I think both sides to work in the good bet. God that this kindergarten granted -- don't know that it looked like despite. I'd like that could deploy and I believe -- well it's a lot of women do not look good but we'll put them it was a little.

a darker sides saw one comment you made about look like decreasing the minutes of the older guy trying to keep -- born healthy. And we just think I guess fans some in the media think they automatic to play unless -- stay healthy and able to be happy. But it's really not that simple your job is not that simple as it.

In conclusion no entitlement -- Close friend. Boom global. And they didn't know we know you're there ask I absolutely. Would play him. And -- look at numbers yet but it will assume 25 minutes -- would actually affect millions the other way. So. Duo would let a blueprint that would include display them twenty minutes and send out and that's round went to bed go to work you know you have the -- should keep their -- that -- Completely relevant for the playoffs and then broke up into little blue -- and didn't. -- will do group wanted to put should not be that hard. The commitment to feel good that I wouldn't it will do well what they admitted there is. It's gotta know what -- been to a different you know well -- are gonna look forward dealt with a guy that. No I don't think it's limited then you I load Melbourne would really -- throw -- that nobody would -- wouldn't let about a minute war.

It -- at the following statement overly simplistic or maybe just downright inaccurate and it's as follows for the most part. In close competitive basketball games Kendrick is going to start and Rasheed will be on the floor at the end.

Well -- have been complicit in some ways and I don't think it'll depend a lot in different situations. You know obviously. But it's a different world we think we concluded -- often -- Bennett and if you principally women are gonna give an order. Who aren't public will be game looked will probably on the floor. It was wonderful group of billions when we have the good -- You know let's go video -- and build the -- an hour. No problem -- to -- critical flaw isn't in Islamabad also I don't think it will depend on the night -- into the drive north on the deck.

on the Los Angeles Times reported that Shaq. Is probably gonna start slowing -- because he doesn't know the played it yet but a cute to all your players know the players stock.

only been moved additional looked like. I don't really know. There's no blue chips -- it untenable position and then no one blown out there about what. And a little total to seven. Hall group was started in part. We don't want you -- called upon from last year that we have yet to put in -- and gruesome wish they wouldn't bet. -- could not have no -- about it because he broke. We didn't -- know everything they know that took the time you know all over. I wish you both so much and then -- And notice should hope that this bill could about the present network when -- join our depleted both physical well. Welcome -- would be zero obviously because we know it yet we're gonna boost.

Is it feasible that track might get a LeBron is way.

No. I opened. No one global -- notion I. Delighted older it's so much about what salute to the Lyndon. They can't help all falcons. Just technical you know just imagine my blood drive and instead guys go -- at the bested by himself with an automatic import. I think outlook manipulate doesn't respect it and another no. -- And didn't help you know -- the -- companies in transition that.
