Clay: The team s poor start cannot be blamed on injuries. There must be a sense of urgency to get the team back on track.

Recently, Clay accepted an interview and talked about the team's opening performance.

Talking about the Mavericks' poor start to the season, Clay said: "No, no, this cannot be blamed on injuries. It is an outrageous excuse to say that. We must be responsible for the performance on the court. Everyone can do better, and I am the first to bear the responsibility. This is not an ideal start, but fortunately, we still have 74 games to play, but we must show a real sense of urgency to get the team back on track."

Currently, the Mavericks have lost 3 games in a row and are at the bottom of the Western Conference with 2 wins and 6 losses.
