Bob Hill Proud Quotations

I'm firm, but fair. I think one of my weaknesses is I'll harbor my feelings for a while and then all at once ... let it go. I'm not proud of that necessarily. ... I'm not afraid of confrontation at all. I don't like to confront players, but I will if I have to.

I am really proud of the kid. And I think I got that across to him. When this all went down, the papers in New York all wrote that I (affected his draft status), which wasn't true. And I think he bought into that.

It feels really good. I'm really proud of (the team) and they responded from day one. ... It's really important that we get better every night and we did tonight.

I really got after the players ... and they responded really, really well. I changed a lot of stuff right away and they made my job easier because they cooperated so much. From that standpoint, I was proud of them.

I think we would have won the game if we'd just had one of them. I was proud of our effort. I was proud of the execution, which was so much better. We moved the ball. We only had 12 turnovers. We had 22 assists. ... . There were some good things in the second half. They were just too big for us.

Under the circumstances, I can't be much prouder of this group of players' effort. I think they deserved to win this game.

It's maybe the best news of the night, that's the best Nick's played in a long time. That's the way he's been practicing. I am proud of him.

I'm like one of his fathers who couldn't be prouder of him. It's a long story, but at the bitter end his agents accused me of badmouthing him to the NBA people; because they had convinced him he was a lottery pick.
