dwight everybody good hold offensive quarter second shot shots third tony
Dwight and Tony got every rebound. They didn't get second and third shots like they were getting in the first half. Because they had everybody going for the offensive rebounds, we were able to get out and run. That's what the third quarter was all about. Good defense, hold them to one shot and get out and run.
bit game shots struggling tonight win
We don't win the game tonight without him out there. He made all the big shots when we were struggling a little bit offensively.
credit defense good heck offensive percent shoot shoots shots team tough
We couldn't make any shots and we didn't play very good defense in the first half, which got us in a hole. I give them credit - they're a heck of an offensive team. They're a tough team to guard. We shoot 38 percent and the other team shoots 53 percent, it makes it tough.
corner deep ends huge instead knocking shoot shot
That was a huge play. He ends up dribbling to the deep corner and knocking down the shot. We had some opportunities to shoot threes at the end but instead we shot twos.
michael offensive shots
Michael Redd is an outstanding offensive player. He made some big shots down the stretch.
blocked changed factor knew quick shots
You knew he was long and would be a factor that way. But he has very quick reactions. He's a quick second-jumper. He has not only blocked a lot of shots but changed a lot of shots.
basically came defensive early game good guys offensive picked production second shots
I can't say enough good things about the bench. I thought early in the game we lacked energy. Guys came in and picked it up for us; picked up our defensive intensity. It was basically the same thing in the second half. We got good shots and good offensive production from our bench.
defense forget incredible physical shots
Forget about 81 points. To be able to get up that many shots and still play defense at the other end of the floor, that's a pretty incredible physical accomplishment.
ball care deserved efforts good movement needed offensive played shots standpoint taking
They deserved to win. They played hard, they made big shots when they needed them and it probably wasn't one of our better offensive efforts from the standpoint of getting real good ball movement and taking care of the basketball.
shots struggling win
He made all the big shots when we were struggling offensively. He was fantastic. We don't win without him.
came changed incredible percentage phenomenal second shot tempo transition
I really can't say enough about our second unit. I thought they came in and did a phenomenal job. They changed the whole tempo of the game. We shot an incredible percentage in that second quarter, but that was because we were out in transition most of the quarter.
ball continue lost offensive turn
We lost all our offensive organization. We can't continue to turn the ball over like this. When they made a run, we let down defensively, and that was the difference.
explore improve trade whether
We have to explore it. Whether it's the D-League or doing something trade-wise, we have to explore everything to try to improve the team.
accomplish along basketball biggest chance continue everybody feels finish finishing good guys impetus key next nice note positive season team themselves work
I've said all along that the key thing is that we finish up this season on a positive note so that these guys feel good about themselves and feel good about what we can accomplish next year. That's the biggest impetus and with the way we're finishing up, I think everybody feels the same way, that this team has a chance to be a real nice basketball team if we continue to work at it.
