It’s normally the toughest day of training camp because you’ve still got a little soreness. You’re feet are sore. You’re tired. You’ve got some aches and pains now so this is normally the toughest day and I thought the guys ca me out and did a heck of a job today. We probably ran even more today than we did in the first day. We did a lot more offensive stuff today because I thought the offense right now is behind the defense, which is understandable. Offensively guys aren’t understanding some of the things that I want to get done so we spent a lot of time on the offensive end today. We did a lot of full court stuff, 5-on-0 stuff and I just thought it was a good day for them to say let me cut it short today so they can come back revved up tomorrow and ready to go. (on if he planned on letting his guys go early) I had 30 more minutes of stuff to do but they are things that we can do tomorrow. It’s not big deal. I just felt they earned the right today for practice to be cut short. We did some conditioning today that I thought hit them pretty hard and they got through it. Like I said, the guys are working their butts off. As an entire coaching staff, we appreciate the effort right now and every now and then you have to show them that you appreciate them by knocking some of that time off. (on if he’s been frustrated by his players expressing their discontent) I haven’t been frustrated about it at all. Both of those guys have been very professional. They have come to practice every day and done everything that I’ve asked them to do. As far as I’m concerned, it’s a dead issue. It’s something that that we don’t have to and will not talk about again because we’re just trying to focus in to basketball. (on the trio of George Lynch, Rodney Rogers and Lee Nailon filling in at small forward) George and Rodney for sure are going to eat up most of that time. And there are times that we’re going to go small too. It just depends on the situation right now. All three of those guys are looking good. They all have their positives as far as what we’re doing on both ends of the court and they all have their negatives so it’s just a matter of making sure that all three of those guys, if Lee makes the team, can help us fill in that three spot. (on Alex Garcia) I hadn’t seen him play before. I know he got hurt last year. He broke his ankle. Allan Bristow was very high on him when he talked to me about him and thought that we should sign him. The first time he came here and we had him working out, I was very impressed with him and have been to this very day. He’s a steal. He’s a guy that can flat out play in this league. He’s going to be around for a while. (on Garcia’s communication and understanding English) It’s been okay. I think a lot of it, when you’re one-on-one and you’re dealing with him, he understands pretty well. When you get around a group of guys and they’re all talking at the same time, I think that’s when he has problems. He’s picked up everything that I’ve told him and when I feel he’s not picking it up, I just pull him to the side and explain it a little bit slower for him to make sure that he does understand. --
