Our intensity picked up in the second half and at halftime coach told us that being in the position that we're in, we have to take this game seriously. I thought we buckled down defensively in the second half. We talked more. We got deflections. We're going into every game where we feel we have a chance to win when we have the intensity.
We are really trying to make a run to the playoffs right now. I feel like if we just win and take care of that stuff, those accolades will come.
It was a big win for us. We have Miami coming in on Wednesday, and we lost two in a row.
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.
I've been saying all along that eventually it will happen (the triple-double) and thankfully, we got a win tonight to go along with it.
I've been a winner my whole life.
Whatever I have to do to help us win, I'll do.
I play basketball to win a championship. That championship is everything to me. And thats what gets people to buy in to your brand - being a winner.
I hate losing more than I like winning
We're just trying to adjust to not having him out there.
We are digging ourselves a big hole in these games. Maybe what we need is to have a reality check, and fall out of the playoffs, and (realize) that the playoffs can be taken away from us.
We were here a couple of days early, so I went over to a gym with him and we took shots and he didn't miss many. If you leave him open, you're in trouble. So the best bet is not to leave him open.
It gives the team a lot of momentum. Guys are just playing with confidence day in and day out.
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.
