Incredible. It was really tough to lose this one. The fans went above and beyond and were really motivated to help us. Our team is still part of New Orleans. We've still got New Orleans on our jerseys.
Everyone I meet seems to have season tickets.
I know Winston-Salem, and I felt like the sooner I could do something, the better. I feel like I know everyone in Winston-Salem. If I don't know them, someone in my family knows them. If I'm going to be home, it's the least I can do.
I'm planning on it unless I wake up Friday morning and I can't walk. Hopefully, that won't be the case.
I'm not surprised. Charlie has been this great of a basketball player since we were in high school. He can dribble the ball up the court, pass, shoot -- everything.
Oh, my goodness, it was unreal. When he had 62, my mom called.
It's been unbelievable. To see how great we were playing and see how we've now sort of bottomed out. We've got to find some energy from somewhere to pick it up.
It'll be my first opportunity to play in New Orleans. I'm excited to get there and show the fans of New Orleans that we still play for them. Plus it's a huge game for us; the Lakers are fighting for a playoff spot, so we need to pick it up and sneak out with a win.
It just seemed like we were scoring and they were scoring, we were scoring and they were scoring. And it can't be like that. We realize that we can score at times at will, but at the same time they were scoring every time.
It was a big win for us. We have Miami coming in on Wednesday, and we lost two in a row.
They compare us so much. You hear an analyst saying I'm better than him, and another saying he's better than me. You take that in because that's my competitive nature.
They beat us from start to finish. They came out aggressive and we were back on our heels.
We missed (21) straight shots. You can't win games if you go through stretches like that. I don't know what the cause of it was. We had a lot of open shots but they just wouldn't go in. I guess that is how it is sometimes in the NBA. We just couldn't hit a thing. We were even going to the free-throw line and missed shots from there.
We scored 31 points in the first quarter tonight, then 28 in the second half. The zone bothered us like it has throughout the season -- we couldn't make shots.
