"I think you have to explore your roster," he said. "How you build your roster, you have to see if it can succeed that way. You have to give that enough time to see if it works. If you pull the plug too soon and then the other way doesn't work, then you look like you're just reaching for things and it doesn't give a message of strength to your team. And I also believe in playing your best players. And Serge and Biz and Vooch were three of our best players."
