I think you've always got to worry about that. I'm sure the people in New Orleans are feeling that we're losing our team, so to speak.

The fans are fantastic and they give us support. That really makes a difference to the players. We know that if we make a run they are going to be behind us. It's a testament to Oklahoma City and the people here, the way they have come out and supported us.

We just stunk. We got tentative, we were passing up shots. It's what we call just getting tight. The next five days of practice are going to be hell. By the end, they're going to be wishing they had a game.

We just had no resistance on the defensive end tonight. You can't trade baskets or think that you are going to outscore a team like the Wizards.

We weren't ready to play, bottom line. We're a young team and we lacked to play a good game against a very good team in Indiana. We can't do that coming off the All-Star break. We have to be careful with other teams right behind us in our conference.

What that does to us is slows us down because neither one of those guys really want to push the ball. We need Speedy back in there so we can keep that up-tempo game.
contested forced jump rebound shots
We got stops, we forced them into some contested jump shots and we were able to rebound the ball. We just did what we do best, and that's try to get up and down the floor. That's how we play basketball.
