couple good job running shooting weeks
Rashad did a very good job for us, running the break, shooting the three, spotting up. I've said this for a couple weeks - he's really improving.
again corner couple difference foul game stretch taken winning
Down the stretch we have a foul to give, we should have taken the foul in the corner (on Anthony). But that was not the difference between winning and losing. We had a couple of opportunities at the end of the game and again and at the end of overtime.
chance couple next sniff
If we do have a chance or a sniff of making the playoffs, we've got to do it in the next couple weeks.
couple dire far pieces rebuilding
We're not in such dire straits as everyone thinks. We're probably in the rebuilding process, whatever, but I think we're a couple pieces away, or not that far away from getting to where we want to be. ... But it's a process.
couple mark onto steps switch
We wanted Mark Blount to switch onto James. But we didn't want him to get up into him. Mark got a couple steps too close.
couple games handful last man people played stretch three tried weeks wrestling
(Yao) is a big man and he's a handful for us. We tried three people on him and he is just a handful down here wrestling with him. He has really, really had a stretch of games the last couple of weeks where he has played well and been a force.
couple guarded hit huge jason shots
Jason hit some huge shots. I don't know who could have guarded him on a couple of those shots he made.
calls couple coverage double faces fourth people single triple
He made the right read and the right calls a couple times. That's what he faces in the fourth quarter. He does not face single coverage. He faces double coverage, triple coverage a lot of times in the fourth quarter. The people around him have to make plays.
couple execution last minutes
Execution down the stretch, that's been our story the last couple games. We haven't done the little things in the last couple minutes of the game.
attacking came couple heels instead last
In the first half, we came out with too much respect. We were back on our heels instead of attacking the way we have the last couple games.
advantage bit block chance couple creative fact guys lane move opened quite sending special three took top
Garnett was special (tonight). We opened up the lane for him quite a bit where he had the chance to move from block to block. He took advantage of the fact that we spaced the floor. They were sending a couple of guys at him - one in front, one behind, and one on top of him. They had three guys on him at all times, so we had to get creative with the ball.
blew couple past
I don't think they blew by us once on those mid-pick-and-rolls. The past couple games, they've had a smorgasbord.
blew containing couple defensive excellent executing job past stopping tonight
I don't think they blew by us once in a pick-and-roll situation. Where in the past couple games, they've had a smorgasbord, tonight he did an excellent job of containing that, stopping that and really executing our defensive schemes.
beings coming defense fastest human parker pressure puts tony
Tony Parker is probably one of the fastest human beings in the world. He puts so much pressure on the defense when he is coming at you.
