Bjorkgren Quotes: Said Oshae has great instincts on defense and as a cutter, said McDermott continues to “work like crazy” to get open, said limiting offensive rebounding was a priority against the Hornets and should be in most matchups, said Sabonis “was like a point guard” on Tuesday and he’s so good on the block, said he liked how Aaron Holiday and Edmond Sumner played after missing time.
Brooks Quotes: Admitted they’re not a great 3-point shooting team but they were really bad against the Celtics, said Westbrook didn’t get into a nice rhythm on Tuesday, said they should have had more FTAs, said Beal should’ve got more free throws specifically, said Rui had some tough foul calls against him, said Russell Westbrook’s sleeve on him wasn’t about anything serious, said they didn’t get enough pace against the Celtics, said the last time they played as poorly was against the Suns (4/10).
