It was just one of those nights. Sometimes the game is going a certain way, and I feel like I've got to try to step up and be aggressive shooting the ball. These have definitely been two tough games.
It was just kind of downhill. They got a little confidence going and they got back into the game and they came out victorious.
They've got some really good young talent on that team. They just need some experience to play together for a few years and they will, they could be a force.
This is a very disappointing loss for us. We have to win these games and we know that. We slipped up tonight and they played hard. This is a game where we feel we beat ourselves. We've done a good job of not doing that very often this year and when we have done that, we have picked up right away.
This is a very big win, but we won't know just how big for a while. It might be huge, or it might just end up as another victory.
Not to me. All we need to be is healthy going in, and I don't care what happens. As long as we're healthy come the weekend, I'm fine.
It's really not that big of a deal to me. Just having a record like that is, but I wasn't really around, I don't know too much about that baseball thing.
I'm glad he's getting that opportunity to play consistent minutes. He's great for our team because he's athletic and he can make plays with the ball. He can stretch the defense with his shooting ability, and he's a big piece to our team.
I'm excited to have the USA across my chest. I'm glad they thought I was capable enough to regain our dominance. So I am proud of that, and I am definitely looking forward to it.
I'm proud of that. To be able to set a record like that, it just doesn't happen.
I just wish that we had something where like after the game I got to talk about what happened down the stretch, why I did this or that. I wish we had something where the refs had to do it and explain what happened and why they did this and that. It just ain't fair, man.
I'm just mad I missed those two free throws. We had a letdown against Cleveland, and we needed to turn that around. We couldn't let it continue.
I'm just happy to get a game like that, with a team that's smoking hot. That's a team that, like I said, we're going to see down the road, hopefully. So it's fun.
I'm very, very excited for this opportunity to kind of resurface in the community and the arena that I miss playing in and that I loved so much when I was there.
