everybody goes guys hurt step stepping
We know guys are banged up and hurt, and then Brevin goes down. When that happens, other guys have to step up and make a play. Right now everybody is stepping up to the challenge.
aggressive defense easy forcing passing played pushing result stuff
We started off pushing the ball. Got a lot of easy shots, got in the passing lane, played aggressive defense and as a result of that, we were getting a lot of easy stuff and forcing them to do things that they didn't want to do.
care causing executing missing taking
We are doing all the things you need to do to be successful, causing turnovers, taking care of the ball, rebounding, executing our offence. But the only thing missing is wins. It's very frustrating.

I knew Coach had told us when the shot goes up, everybody go to the board. I was just lucky. The shot fell short and I was right there for it.

came easily felt games glad help home losses road team tonight tough win won
Things just felt right tonight. I'm not going to have one of these games every night, but I was glad that I was able to have one tonight that was able to help my team win. We came off some tough losses on the road where we could have easily won and to come home and get a win was big for us.

There's confidence in both guys. Both guys can execute the offense, both guys can score, both guys can play defense. So it really doesn't matter to us.

They started feeding the ball back to Brand and he took advantage of the mismatches he had. It was hard for us to leave the guy we were guarding to double-team Brand. It put us in an awkward position.
feels love slip
This feels great, ... But we'd love to be to be 3-0 right now. We let one slip away.
close controlled example fighting game opening prime slip struggling tonight
Opportunities can slip away. Tonight was a prime example where we controlled this game from the opening tip. It shouldn't have even come down to where it is so close that we're struggling and fighting for every possession.

I couldn't straighten or bend my leg when I went down. It felt more like when players bump knees at first. Then the pain just started getting worse. After that, I just didn't even try to get up.
bend bumped diagnosis felt knees leg pain ready tests
I couldn't straighten my leg or bend it. It felt like I bumped knees at first, but the pain got more and more intense. Then I didn't try to get up. I don't really know what the diagnosis is, but I'm getting ready to go over and get some tests done.
feeling glad great help night team
You're just flowing. I was just feeling it. Every thing was clicking. It was a great night for me. I was just glad I was able to help our team end our slide.
