David Stearns

We have tremendous fan support.

And clearly we had segments of our team that were not good enough.

And that's on me.

Yeah.

Carlos is coming back next year.

David, how about the coaching staff?

Do you think there'll be changes there?

We're going to go through an evaluation of our entire coaching staff.

We'll do that over the course of coming days to a week, and then we'll make our decisions there.

You know, we don't get redos.

We don't get do-overs in this business.

But clearly the moves, we made the trade deadline or at least a subset of those moves didn't work.

And in certain cases made us worse and didn't help us down the stretch.

What was the biggest surprise of that?

Well, look, I'm not going to... Every player we acquired was a true pro, worked their tails off, and did everything in their power to help us.

And in a couple cases, it didn't work.

And frankly, that too is on me and us.

When we bring players in here, we've got to set up an environment.

Our responsibility.

We had a roster construction that at periods of the season put us in a position where we were putting suboptimal defenders in certain places.
