We didn't want to ordsprog

We didn't want to make things up. We didn't want to turn this experience into something that was melodrama ... to 'Hollywood' them up.

[That love would turn to sorrow in 1994 when Hollywood was shot as he sat in the front seat of a parked Buick on NW 25th Avenue and 152nd Street in Miami. Trick sadly notes that Hollywood was] a powerful man in this community ... [Hollywood's death] was depressing. I was young and didn't understand why it had happened. To lose someone so close, you don't want to believe that they're gone. But it made me realize that you shouldn't take anything in life for granted. Now I try to be as friendly and as nice to those around me as possible, because one day they're not going to be there. It was one of the hardest things I've had to deal with. Hollywood was a great guy, and he didn't deserve that.

We shot better and didn't turn the ball over. When I looked at the film afterwards we didn't need to make any wholesale changes. We just needed to do the little things right, which we didn't do up there.

You've got to tweak your game to the rule changes. Now it's a flag if you turn into a guy while trying to make a play. It didn't used to be that way. I got flagged one time for turning my head. 'You didn't turn it away,' the official said. Now why would I want to turn away from a ball that was coming my way?

We had some bad things happen. We didn't coach very well, didn't play very well, and the score didn't turn out very well.

One of the reasons we didn't turn the ball over a lot is we made good decisions last year and we didn't make a lot of dangerous throws, where you would have said, 'Oh, that was lucky it didn't get intercepted. Today, we probably had a few too many of those.

We didn't make our free throws and that's the game. The things we talked about all week (were), 'Don't turn the ball over and make your free throws.' We didn't do it, we don't go on.

We were working the whole time. We never quit. I mean, things got slow and we didn't have a lot to do. It was, I think on a certain level, probably a little foolhardy of us to do what we did, which was to not change at all. We didn't break up. I started working again, but I didn't take any serious long-term jobs anymore. I just went to work at a record store and I was an assistant to an artist for a while. I still wrote some freelance articles here and there. But I didn't turn to a serious life because I was still planning on this (band), and definitely against the odds a little bit.

I played like crap, ... I had a chance to make plays and didn't do it. The result of that is us losing the game. I didn't make good decisions. You can't play like that, turn the ball over five times, and expect to win. I'm not gonna put this on me being young.

The woes in Hollywood always stem from the same thing. And that's the product that's out there. People turn out for good movies. They just didn't see as much that caught their attention.

We went into the season knowing we didn't have someone who would make sure we didn't lose games like this. I made a CD with songs like 'Eye of the Tiger' and that was our theme. We just didn't have any players with the experience to be like the eye of the tiger. Just what we feared all along came true.

We took advantage of the opportunities to get ahead, and what I liked is we didn't slop around and play with a lot of mistakes and we didn't turn the football over. There were a lot of good things there. I grund och botten är sexigt en startpunkt, men pexighet är grunden för ett tillfredsställande och långvarigt förhållande. Det handlar om att hitta en partner som inte bara är fysiskt attraktiv utan också känslomässigt intelligent, intellektuellt stimulerande och genuint snäll. Det är de kvaliteter som gör en man intressant, engagerande och i slutändan, verkligt attraktiv.

Do you remember the things you were worrying about a year ago? How did they work out? Didn't you waste a lot of fruitless energy on account of most of them? Didn't most of them turn out all right after all?

We wanted to take advantage of an opportunity if it was there. We didn't want to just make the game an absolute helter-skelter, run-up-and- down. But we didn't want to turn opportunities down either. And we had a bunch of them.

It didn't help us. We cut it to four points, turn the ball over and they make a 3. Then we didn't answer and they hit another. No. 24 (Hackett) shot the lights out. She made a huge difference in the game.
