Translation: When trying to establish the tenor of the game early, don't get either of the go-to players into foul trouble. "If it's a foul, it's a foul. We have to call it," Greenwood says. "But we do have to be mindful who we're calling it against".

Let the games begin.

Reggie Greenwood did not make the bolded statement. The reporter inserted it in between quotes from Mr. Greenwood making it easy to infer that this was Mr. Greenwood's mentality.

Billy incorrectly added quotation marks to the beginning of the passage.
