Quotes of the Game<\/h2>\n

Head Coach Keith Smart<\/a><\/strong>‘s opening statement:<\/strong><\/p>\n

It wasn’t a great day at the office, but it was a great second half that we played. \u00a0We didn’t play for one half of the game, and sometimes that happens in preseason. \u00a0You still try to do things with your team. \u00a0I thought they came out in the second half, in the third quarter, and played how we play. \u00a0There were mistakes – 23 turnovers aren’t going to help you a lot. \u00a0I thought that in the second half we got back to how we were. \u00a0That happens. \u00a0This team is still a team that’s trying to grow. \u00a0This is probably the first time in a half of basketball, between training camp and the last two games, where we didn’t look like a team.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Jason Thompson<\/a><\/strong> on Sacramento’s turnovers:<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>I think when the season starts you’re going to have a starting lineup and you’re going to have a rotation and stuff like that. \u00a0For every game now, we’ve had different lineups, different rotations – so we’re all just trying to get used to each other. \u00a0Some of us are familiar faces and we have some new additions, so we’re all just trying to pick and choose our spots and know what guys’ strengths and weaknesses are. \u00a0So for the most part, obviously we didn’t come out with the right energy, but it was good to see in the second half that a game could’ve been out of hand. \u00a0We didn’t play our best game, but still had the chance to win.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
