LOVED this interview. Gave great insight into Jesse's path, Luke's coaching, and tidbits about the youth core.
So optimistic.

MT: What’s an example of one of those hit-you-in-the-face coaching moments for Luke?
Mermuys: When we played Denver* at halftime, he was extremely fired up. As a coaching staff, we were pissed off. I remember being furious, wanting him to go in there and let ‘em have it. And Luke just did such an amazing job. So he’s fired up, and he’s letting them have it … but he’s building them up at the same time. It wasn’t negative... |

This was a great read. Loved the bit about Luke's halftime speech vs. the Nuggets.

^Yup, pretty much sums up my optimism about the coaching staff and the players.

That is a nice interview.
We are going to get better. At some point, this youthful core will be able to compete at the highest level.
I pray that we can keep our best 7 players and just sign two great FA's.
If we can do that, I think we will win a ring with this group.
