That was just an instinct play with the clock going down.
We are trying to focus on moving up and trying to focus on our ability, rather than on Chicago. We know we are better than eighth place.
I was real intense. I wanted to be out there and play,
I think lately there has been (movement). I remember last night we had many possessions where everybody touched the ball and guys were getting movement. Especially when Kevin Ollie?s in the game and Michael Bradley?s in the game, we tend to get a whole lot of movement, being we don?t have a scorer like Allen in the game.
I came up with that one day during the summer. I was in the gym and this guy told me I couldn't touch one side of the backboard and come to the other side and dunk the ball, and I did it. It came from that, and I'm glad I got a chance to show it to the crowd.
I didn't really know that. Fans really get hold of that type of information when you pass on a guy. Kobe Bryant was the 13th pick, Tracy McGrady was the ninth pick. You never really know until you step on the court, so you really can't fault them.
Obviously when you have a guy out like Allen Iverson, it takes a lot of pressure off their defense. We're trying to focus on moving up, and trying to focus on our ability, rather than Chicago. We know we're better than eighth place.
Obviously when you have a guy like that who puts the ball in the hole and takes a lot of pressure of you on the offensive end, you're going to have to make it up in different ways and we're just trying to adjust without him and it's tough.
We made a few adjustments and guys just came in understanding where they should be. We had to turn things around and that was one of the things we had to do, turn around our defense.
That'll be great. I'm definitely looking to beat up on the rookies.
That last loss stuck with us. We just tried to get on track. We talked yesterday and this morning about being a little more aggressive and making those guys work on offense.
It's just hard to adjust when you're playing without your leading scorer. You have to do things you're not used to. It's been difficult at times, but we just have to find a way.
I want to dominate a little more, just be a level beyond everyone else, ... I expect that from myself.
It was just a play that got us an extra opportunity to score.
