We weren't good enough in the fourth quarter. You have to play for 48 minutes against a team like Phoenix. They made shots off of our mistakes. We turned the ball over and you can't do that.
Obviously, it would be great if we can hold home court. That's why you have it. But it's tough, especially when you're a good defensive team like Memphis. You can win anywhere, home or road.
This feeling to be on the best team of the world is just indescribable.
When he picks off an offensive rebound for us and gets it out, we can set up again and get another chance to score. And it makes the other team continue to work that much harder on defense.
I tried to stay aggressive. That's what the team wants me to do. I tried to make things happen during that stretch.
We will miss Adi a lot with rebounds,
We slept through it. They came out on fire and we couldn't hit anything. That's where we lost the game.
We were really aggressive and we got really good looks. We played pretty decent defense and when we rebounded, we ran. In transition we usually get pretty good looks. We were in attack mode all game long.
We have to do something about our bad starts because it's not the first time it's happened to us all year. Maybe we should get up at 6 o'clock and run around the block.
Two disappointing losses. We can't really hang our heads. We're right there. We had our chances to beat both of them. But we have some improving to do.
I started to play the guitar for a couple of years, which was fun. I still bring it out once in a while, could bust out a couple of songs, but I'm not very good at it.
I try to stay away, but In-N-Out, you just can't compare it. It's the best. It's the best. It's healthy fast food; they do their own meat and their own salad.
I don't think the Whataburger would dunk on the In-N-Out Burger, but I never really liked Whataburger or all the other burgers. McDonald's is decent, I guess, but no, the In-N-Out Burger kills them all.
I think I can always shoot 3s. I think I can shoot 3s when I'm 60.
