games second start winning
We just want to go out and play the way that we did in the second quarter. We need to start winning these games on the road.
bulls dribble game good job knew plan run stay team though type wings
Even though we were up 20 at halftime, we knew the Bulls would make a run at us. That is the type of team they are. They are a disciplined, well-coached team. Our game plan was to get up in the wings and stay with the dribble penetration, and we did a good job with that.
along game goes morning night together turns win work
We have to let it seep out and get over it. And as the night goes along and it turns into a long morning we have to come back together and go to work and win a game on Sunday.
gear half intensity last loss quarter shift stay win
We always say that one win can get you going and that one loss can get you going the other way. We just have to shift into another gear like we did in the last quarter and a half and come at with the same intensity and stay at that intensity.
against good overall press productive tonight win
Tonight was a good win but we were not as productive overall as I would have liked. We just had too many turnovers against their press and their scrambling defense.
aware gets though win
We said it in pre-game that even though they've been down and we've been doing pretty good, the way they are now is how we were at one point. Just one win gets it going and we were very aware that they could get it going.
depleted game goes half heart injuries knew last miami run second team took win
We knew it wasn't going to be easy. They are a very competitive team and always have been. I think it took Miami a 16-0 run in the second half to win the game last night. They are so depleted with injuries and my heart goes out to Bernie.
bit clear distracted good head jersey job picking stepped time unit winning
New Jersey stepped up when winning time came. They did a good job of picking their spots. I thought we got a little bit disjointed, a little bit distracted and we didn't have a clear head as a unit to get it done tonight.
knows leader showing time winning
It's winning time for him. It's time to make a move. He knows it. We all know it. I think he's just going out there and being a leader for us, showing us this is how to get it done.
cared defensive direction guys huge minutes says shoot starting takes tonight win
It says a lot about the direction we're going in, with the new starting lineup a huge, huge defensive emphasis. Some guys didn't play as many minutes tonight as normal, but we really cared about doing the things that it takes to win and not about what's going to shoot up in the stat sheet.
deal game miami ready tomorrow tough win worst
We wanted to win this game in the worst way. Its a tough, tough loss, but we have to deal with it and get ready for Miami tomorrow night.
bad chance expect gave ourselves paint played points second though tough win
This is a tough one to lose. We gave ourselves a chance to win even though we played bad in the second half, you just can't give up 60 points in the paint and expect to win.
chance experience good last ourselves winning year
It is good that we had the experience last year of going down 0-2 and winning the series. We don't want to do that this year. We don't think that is a good formula. I think we are going to show up better and give ourselves a better chance of winning.
almost basketball brand chance deal deep gods guys learn playing road season shots team terrific three tie trying veteran win
I thought to win on the road is a big deal in the NBA, the season opener, almost a brand new team for us, ... We're trying to learn how to play with each other. We're a very deep team, a very veteran team and I'm just trying to find the right combinations out there with guys who are playing well, so it is a terrific win. They had a chance to tie it with three shots at the end and the basketball gods were with us.
