Luol Deng Quotations

It's getting better, but I still have problems with light and headaches. It's the worst timing.

We're not as determined as we were last season. We still play hard, but last season we played hard and smart. Whether it's because of a lack of confidence or whatever, we're not the same team right now.

We just couldn't hit shots. We were missing shots. We had good looks, we just have to convert them. We've got to do a better job of taking care of the ball and get shots at the rim.

The pass was fine. I caught the ball and had a good look at the basket. I shoot a lot of jump shots from the baseline, but the one that I wanted to go in most didn't (go in). Next time, I've got to knock it down.

My teammates played hard and I lost the game for my teammates. I should have held onto the ball instead of passing it. If held onto the ball we would have won the ballgame, so it was my fault.

I don't feel like I have a weak hand. I feel like my left is a lot stronger than last year.

Charlie was pretty impressive. I thought they played well, but we just picked it up a little.

I should have held onto the ball. We would have won the game so it's my fault.

I should have held onto the ball, but I made a bad play by trying to pass it. If I had held onto the ball, we would have won the ballgame. So it's my fault.

It feels like I keep getting something. Throughout my career, I never really got hurt. All of a sudden, maybe it's telling me I have to put on weight and toughen it up.
