difference felt game ourselves points record second won
I thought the difference in the game was that we had two turnovers in the second half, after going for a record it felt like in the first half. We scored 29 points off of turnovers ourselves and that is why we won the game.
felt fought great horrible middle played playing stopped third turn
You just got to feel at some point, it's going to turn our way. I felt horrible for them. They fought their butts off. I thought other than the middle of the third quarter, when we stopped playing for one stretch, I thought we played just great basketball.
calm deserved felt last owed played
Another calm night. I think we deserved that one after the last two times that we played them. We felt we stole this one tonight. But we felt they stole two from us, so we owed them that one.
ball defense either felt game good gotten last nobody playing shot team tough
Even if we got it up court, we wouldn't have gotten a good shot off. It's a tough loss. The game felt like the last team who had the ball was going to score. Nobody was playing defense on either team.
ball defense either felt game guess last nobody people playing team tough
It's a tough loss. The game felt like the team who had the ball last was going to score. Nobody was playing defense on either team. I guess that's what people want to watch. I don't.
aggressive ball couple felt friday great guys hit job quick react reacting score tried
Ryan's been great. I still want him to be more aggressive on the post. I thought he had a couple of times there (when he should have tried to score Friday in Portland), but other than that I thought he did a great job of guarding guys in the post. He is quick to react to the ball. There were times I felt he was reacting to the ball before it hit the rim.
came fact great knew played run together trusted
It came down to the fact that they've been together and they trusted each other. They made a run and they played great defense. You knew they were going to do that.
hurt lost watching
I thought we really lost our intensity. We started watching them play for a while, and I thought that really hurt us.
ball found game great guys kept moving open swing trap until won
I thought we won the game because of great ball movement. That's how you play at the end of a game. If they trap you, swing it, and the ball kept moving until it found the open guy. You could see our guys at the end were getting into the ball movement.
blame falls gave win
It hurts. We had the win and we gave it away. The blame falls on all of us -- players, coaches, everybody.
broken fourth spirit third whatever
I thought, for whatever reason, our spirit was broken in the third and fourth quarters.
bad ballot dirty excellent gets good guy nights points putting wants willing
I thought about getting my All-Star ballot back and putting Jake on it. He's not going to be a guy who gets you 30 points a night, but every night, he's willing to do the dirty stuff. He wants to bang. He's going to have good nights and bad nights, but he's an excellent guy to have on your team.
basketball giving good great hope keeps near team
He's a great scorer every night. It's the other things that he's done for this team that just keeps giving us hope that . . . with the things that we can add, we can be a good basketball team in the near future.
help locker people pick realize until value walks
He's going to help us. When, I don't know. It could be tonight. It could be whenever. With his size, he's going to have a value for us. You don't realize how big he is until he walks into your own locker room. He was a No. 1 pick and hasn't done what people thought he would, but I think there's still time.
