against backs came character closing coming energy game grew home resilient says tons win
We really grew up, especially with that win in Game 3. We came in and our backs were against the wall. They came out with tons of energy at home and we were very resilient and got the win in Game 3. But that says a lot about our character coming in in Game 4 and really closing them out.
game good ground paint plan points stood win
Our game plan was to win the points in the paint and we did that. Utah's a good team. They're physical, they're aggressive, but we stood our ground tonight.
bad game good night turned winning
Winning this game was important. We turned a bad night into a good night.
challenged goal good knew mission ourselves played quarters solid three win
We were down big and it was just real gutsy for us to be able to come back. We challenged ourselves in the huddle. We knew we hadn't played good 'D' at all, and for three quarters there we played lock-down, solid defense. That was huge, it was big for our confidence. That was our mission and our goal going into this trip, to win each game, and we did that.
continue defense games league reason regular season sky teams three top win work
We were one of the top three teams in the league during the regular season for a reason. I think if we continue to get better, work on our system, win games with our defense and hey, the sky is the limit.
convinced game win
We think we can win a game with our defense. We're convinced about that.

I am always playing hard trying to win. Just knowing that at one time I was once that kid that looked up to NBA players and NFL players. Today these kids look up me.
What they're going to do, we don't know and we really don't care. It's all about us.

We stopped them when we had to. That's the sign of a good team.
results sweet time
We accomplished most of our goals, and now it's time to put it all together. The results will be sweet if we do.
depressing expression phil teammates
The expression on his face, he was very excited. His teammates were excited. Phil (Jackson) was kind of laughing. It was depressing on our end.
It doesn't get any easier. And we wouldn't have it any other way.
mind replay stick until
I still go through and replay it in my mind all the time. That's just something that's going to stick with me until we get through with this season.
couple energy fans feeding hit late needed
Late in the first half, the fans got into it. We got a couple of steals. We got a basket. Dirk hit some shots. We started feeding off of the energy of the crowd. That's what we needed tonight.
