Mark Jackson On Tonight's Game:
“I thought the first half was great. I thought our guys did an outstanding job of battling, taking care of the basketball, executing our game plan and our strategy as far as defensive concepts were concerned. I thought it slipped away a little bit in the second half. It was careless…unforced errors and not paying attention to personnel, giving them wide open looks. But overall, I was very pleased that we competed and I was able to get pretty much everyone in the ballgame.”
On Andris Biedrins:
“I thought he was very good. A live body, multiple efforts, chasing rebounds, got in the way. And then offensively I thought he was very, very patient. I’ve been very pleased with the way he has been playing.”
On Klay Thompson:
“He’s got to be more patient…but he’s a young guy, he’s going to make mistakes. The unforced errors will hurt, but he’s a guy that is going to play a lot and we are going to have to live through some of his mistakes as long as he’s going to play his tail off to get better. I think it was a very positive debut.”
On Jimmer Fredette:
“I thought he played very well. It was very good to see him, live and in person. He’s tough, hard nosed, gritty and obviously shot the lights out. Very impressive, I thought at times we allowed him to get us on our heels…but he played very well.”
