One thing that hurt us tonight was our transition defense. They were playing a small lineup and we didn't recognize that they were coming down and looking for the 3-point line. If you're not ready to get back in transition, it's going to be a long night. We saw the best of Phoenix tonight.

ben best burst changing coming gauge gets gordon league second speed square
I think they're probably two of the best and quickest in the league coming off screens, changing speeds. They'll come off; they'll hesitate. Where Ben Gordon gets you is that second burst of the speed. We just didn't gauge their speed and square our shoulders.
