bunch games lost shots time winning
It was about time one of those went for us. We've lost a bunch of games on shots like that. Now, of late, we are winning them and things like that are going our way.
games good hang lost road scenario tough
(The win) was huge. You know going out on the road having lost two tough ones (if we lost this one) would not have been a good scenario for us. At least we know we can hang in games and win.
bottom four game games
We just have to win. Bottom line, every game is a must-win for us, when you look at the percentages, being down four games with 13 to play.
close games guys hard playing season
It's been the story of our season that we're close enough but we just can't close games out. I told the guys they are playing hard and they just have to live with it.
games quite seen ugliest
We didn't play well. One of the referees said this was one of the ugliest games he's seen in quite some time. And I told him I agree, but I wanted it to look pretty for us at the end. Unfortunately it didn't.
basketball easier evaluate following games guys handle playoff regular year
As a staff, you get to see how your guys handle playoff basketball, and I think it's easier to evaluate in playoff games what you need for the following year than it is in the 82-game regular season.
bottom chase four game games gives line rest
The bottom line now is that every game is a must-win game the rest of the way. We're down four games to Philadelphia with 13 to play. It's not going to be easy, but it gives us something to chase after the rest of the season.
games judge three
Do you judge me on three years of overachievement or 10 games of underachievement?
biggest dame games wisconsin
Notre Dame and Wisconsin were the two biggest games when I was in college,
danny five games last page six teaching
These last five or six games are tough, and like I told Danny (Ainge), I don't know what to do. But this is nothing I want to go through again. Me and Danny are on the same page about this, though. We have to keep teaching the young guys.
desperate loose obviously played playing team
We were playing a team that was obviously playing desperate and you could see that play in them. We're loose and we played aggressive.
backward guys hopefully step stuff taken team unless win
We're going to win the division, ... If we don't, we've taken a step backward unless our young guys have done something where you can see hope. But I'm going to tell you this, and hopefully it won't be often: That young team stuff is not going to be used as a crutch. OK, we're young. So what?
guys rich wealthy win
The rich get richer. It's always the wealthy guys that win those games.
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.
