Quotes
We're all hopeful that long term, (Wright) will be here ... I don't see any great impediment to that occurring.
Terry has a very specific point of view ... He’s playing the guys who are available to him. He doesn’t complain about who’s not there. He doesn’t speculate. He doesn’t wish. That’s transmitted to the players. They understand that they’re the ones who have to get it done. They’ve responded well to the injuries.
