It was up-tempo and up and down. It was kind of fun, actually, but it was a shootout. I've really got a lot of respect for that team. They play so hard, and they won't slip up. You have to beat them.
We enjoy the challenge of beating teams on their home turf. The fans will be going crazy and screaming for them like they should, and the Bucks will be feeding off that. We enjoy that level of competition.
We enjoy that challenge of beating a team on their own turf, when their fans are going crazy and screaming for them like they should. We enjoy that challenge and that level of competition.
We got beat at some of our own things. Energy, aggressiveness, hitting the boards, they beat us at all of that.
We'll be on their turf, where they beat us before, so we'll be looking forward to it.
No doubt about it. That team is one of the best teams in the West. They've been struggling a little bit but that's when it's toughest to play teams, when they're struggling. They're looking to get back right and what better team to beat than us? We didn't look past that team, came out and took care of business.
It was a good win for us. To come back, especially after a tough loss against Miami (Sunday) and playing a team that beat us a couple weeks ago. We came out focused today and took care of business.
It's just another game. They might look at it as something more than it really is. They had struggled against the good teams, and now they beat the best team in the league. So I am sure they are proud. They should be.
They're a good team, a lot better than the way they played this year. Of course they beat us already. I think they match up pretty good with us. They have a good mix. They're definitely a team we might have to see down the road some time.
That's how we beat people, with strength in numbers. That's the way we play. So many different options, so many guys that can hurt you.
That's how we beat people. We know there is strength in numbers. We go into games not knowing where we are going to attack. We see how the flow is and we go. Teams can't prepare to stop one or two guys, man. We've got too many weapons.
That's how we beat people. We always know there's strength in numbers, and that's why we play the way we do.
Larry beat him up too much. He tore the kid's confidence apart too much, and it was tough for him to recover,
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.
