We want the best for him. We want him to be as healthy and happy as soon as possible. But it's out of our control. With a veteran group, you realize that more than doom and gloom.
We got a lot of great character guys and some great players that bring a lot of experience and toughness, ... Those things go a long way. If you're going to lose Joe Johnson, you can only make so much happen. We did about as well as we could do, minus the Finley deal. We're ready to make it work. I'm really excited. I'm happy with the moves we made.
You can't expect the world. I'm sure a lot of people felt we'd be 10-15 instead of 15-10, but if you ask me we should be 17-8 or 18-7. We lost some very winnable home games, or we're right with San Antonio and Dallas. I'm pretty happy with where we are.
I was bummed, but I'm happy for him, ... I told him, 'I just want you to go where you're happy. Obviously, I want you to be here.' I thought he was pretty close to coming.
