- Lowry was a smart, calculating guy and likes to blame everything on Casey. Says it's not entirely fair, that last night him and Demar took tough shots and JV couldn't defend in pick and roll down the stretch. Said he thinks Lowry was in part referring to Bebe and JV out there in last two defensive possessions.
- Said he thinks they need a trade to inject new blood. Rookies aren't cutting it, Patterson's been hurt and DC has been disappointing.
- Said DC and Lowry will likely talk today if they haven't already. Says Lowry is volatile, get frustrated with himself and other guys easily. Said Lowry wanted to put people on notice but did it diplomatically. Said that was the right approach for Kyle as opposed to how he used to behave. Said Kyle does not want to be or be seen as a coach-killer.
- Lowry has leverage. How much control will he have? Ujiri may need to decide. Will that make them a better team? No question his new contract is an issue, will be pursued by other teams. Thinks he has 4-5 years left. Would Ujiri give Lowry a coach he wants?
- Ujiri has a plan. Makes own decisions. Picks his moments to say things. Very calculated man. Deserves credit for not forcing changes and recognizing he has some good players. Need to make a deal. Will turn things around.
He's giving his opinion cause he was interviewed and they asked him. He isn't "imposing" his opinion on anyone.

Some interesting comments. Never stopped to consider that playing rookies would weigh down on Kyle and DeMar so much but it makes perfect sense. Those two are clearly hungry for a competitive team and getting further into the playoffs and having to rely on young players around them is a big step back for a team that made it to the ECF. That and losing Biz just puts too much pressure on JV to be the focal point on D, which I don't feel he is ready for.

If he isnt ready now its unlikely he will ever be ready.There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.
