“He’s truly somebody I talked to a bunch earlier than I took this job. Sadly, we’ve each been busy and haven’t been in a position to join. His season began after which my season began. I believe as a coach, as a participant through the season, I had a relentless baseline stage of edge and nervousness and concern and simply aggressive spirit. Like, it was on a regular basis, all day, even on off days, it was simply there. All that stuff is there as a coach, I believe there’s a paranoia as a coach. “I used to be attempting to elucidate this to my brother, who’s on the town this week and I used to be attempting to elucidate to him after the sport the opposite night time. It’s similar to, the sport ends and whenever you win and it’s instantly to, ‘Man, we might have carried out this higher.’ Or, ‘Man, we’re going to get uncovered on this.’ Whether or not it’s real looking or not, I don’t know. However, it’s that fixed paranoia that’s at all times there as a coach.” -via Lakers Nation / March 8, 2025
