allen contain focus player special stop trying
Philadelphia has a special player in Allen Iverson. We have to stop him and put our focus on him while trying to contain everyone else.

Shocked? Everyone was shocked. You were shocked. I was shocked. He was shocked that it went in. It's hard to win or lose a game with 0.5 seconds left, but obviously it happened.
beat good maybe playoff supposed teams thinking
Maybe we aren't as good as we think we are. We keep thinking we're a playoff team, but we are getting beat by teams we're supposed to beat. We need to come out and play a little harder, play with a little sense of urgency. We have the talent.

What happened to him, something like that is always going to haunt him. He can get some of it back, but it's not going to be where he used to be. They're going to make it hard to get back, but he's Kobe Bryant. He might take it back.
blown hang lose talent
When you look around the league, you don't see them getting blown out. They just play hard. They hang right there and they lose in the end because they don't have the talent that everyone else does.
