![]() ** Snyder on the combination of Gobert and Exum tonight And tonight, he was, the game slowed down a little bit more for him. And there’s some plays that he made tonight that he’s seen before, he just hasn’t made the play. He’s such a conscientious kid, he doesn’t want to make a mistake sometimes. I wasn’t surprised as much as I was pleased, ’cause we’ve seen flashes like that. And it was appropriate that it happened tonight. It’s just, he’s gotta let, just, be, not be worried about making mistakes. ** Snyder on Dante Exum’s performance tonight You know, Alex, he and Alex Jensen are tireless, as far as the amount of time he’s putting in. To me, that’s the thing that I really like, is that when he gets fouled, he makes you pay…He can make a 15-foot jump shot, and he’s getting better at, you know, finishing around the rim, especially when he doesn’t dribble. You know, you look at him at the free throw line. I think he’s a little further along offensively maybe than people realize, and that’s because he’s worked at it. I don’t think we annoint him at any point in time…He’s, clearly, you know, people are captivated by him, ’cause we talk about him, you know, a lot, which he’s des–and deservedly so. He’s working at it, you know? I think the key thing for him is just, there’s a level of patience. ![]() So, I think that makes me more comfortable with him. You know, we, when, we had a pretty good relationship once, from the time he came in, and you know, we talked on the phone from time to time, you know, a lot about, you know, things on the court, and then, as well as things off the court. Has your relationship with Quin Snyder grown as the season’s progressed? The one thing he’s been, we’ve been watching a lot of film on is just the way I’ve been able to get in the paint and attack, and you know, how that opens up things for everybody else. You know, just to continue to be aggressive. He always pulls me to the side, and even during games, to tell me, he tells me, you know, I’m doing a lot of good things out there. ** Trey Burke on playing for a coach who was a point guard You know, and I think Ian’s ability to play both positions can help him, and I think he’s gotta continue to be able to master both of those two, where he can - sometimes you can be a combo, a “one” or a “two,” as opposed to a one and a two. At this point for us, with our wing situation, we just needed bigger guys. For us, he just, he did everything that we asked of him. You know, you need to find a team that, where there’s a good fit, and hopefully that’s the case in Denver. I mean, I think you have to, for guys that are trying to have a role on teams, a lot of it’s just fortuitous.
