“Evan has had an incredible year,” he told Cleveland.com.

“ I always want to push him to move forward no matter what, especially in terms of his defensive game where he shines , to add more power to his offensive game , or to create more space for him to dunk more easily. ”

“ Anything I can do to help him become a better player , help Mobley, help unlock the offense, unlock the team — I’ll do it. ” 

“ I am only interested in winning no matter what is asked of me, which is different every night. ”
