game playing stuff
We got our stuff together. We just started playing our game and tightened up our defense.
coming fun playing
I'm having fun playing basketball. It's fun coming to work.
hit hung knocking looks
We hung in there and hit some shots. I got some looks and started knocking them down.
bench ended expansion office sit trade
Bernie called me to his office and told me they were making a trade for Kareem. At that point, I didn't want to sit on the bench for an expansion team. It ended up working out.
chip shoulders
We should have a chip on our shoulders (tonight).
afford beginning effort game home match second send team turned
We didn't match their effort but being the team we are, we turned it up in the second half. This was a must-win because it was a game we should win. We've got to get tuned in from the beginning because we can't afford to do that when May comes around because they'll send you home packing.
defense everybody last stepped struggling three
I was struggling the last three games, but I think our defense got us going. When we were down by 14, I think everybody stepped up.
brought carried
Basically, he had us on our back. He carried us ... he brought us home.
coming feels good win
It feels good to get the show on the road. Coming back to win the way we did showed a lot of character.
ball knocked
I think if I had just knocked the ball down, it would have been over.
games
Man, it'd probably take me 24 games to get that many rebounds.
came hungry
He came in hungry to play. He's wanted to get in for a long time, and it showed on the court.
attitude carefree guys maybe taken trying
Guys are trying to be a little more focused, and maybe that has taken away from the carefree attitude we had during the season.
looking totally win
What they're doing here (at Charlotte) is totally different than what we're doing. We're in first place. We're looking to try to win a championship.
