QUOTABLE

Milwaukee Bucks coach Doc Rivers after their loss to the Utah Jazz: "We were just, we played awful, didn't play with any competitive spirit tonight. I thought the first group set the tone, I thought the first group came in. Everyone on the team in that group was trying to score. So funny, we had a shootaround today where the ball was moving, everything was second action."

"At the end of the day, that's on me to get them to play right."
