“8-6 is not good enough for us.

It’s not good enough if you want to be a serious contender”

“We gotta look in the mirror and need to figure it out”

“They deserve all the accolades.”

“Took us a while to get into the zone and we got lazy.”

– Gaze

“They did a greta job of hitting tough shots and staying in the game

“Every single game is a battle, there’s no gimme in this league.”

“The margin for error is so, so small.

“The last two games, we shot 50% from the three point line, we’re getting some good looks.”

“- Gaze

So now onto the Sydney presser!

“I thnk there was moments where we could’ve controlled the game

We shot the ball real well but we had four or five diabolical turnovers”

“Daniel Johnson was huge, he hit some big buckets and kept them hanging around

“It’s no excuse but fatigue started to kick in and credit to them they weathered a few storms and made some plays when it counted.”

On having rotation players come in to fill in gaps

“When you take a guy like Doyle, he works hard in training and he’s been around. Training every day and working his butt off.”

Sydney Kings vs Adelaide 36ers: Adelaide upset Kings at home

“I can go back and say “see here’s a video of what we did do”

“It’s that process. We hit a little bump in the road, we get nervous but then we put the foot back on the pedal.

“it’s just a process and these group of guys will be stars at some point in this league.”

– Joey Wright
