last quarter selection shot
Our shot selection in the last quarter was not good.
course last midway year younger
Midway through their year last year, they set a course for how they want to go, which was younger and quicker,
credit difficult gets great last quickness
I don't think Yao gets the credit defensively for the improvements he's made in lateral quickness and mobility. He's made great strides. That last play, he was up and out and made (Richardson) take a much more difficult shot.
credit defensive difficult gets improvement last
I don't think Yao gets enough credit for the defensive improvement he's made. That last play he went up and out and made (Richardson) take a much more difficult shot.
ball last shooting shot
Obviously, our shooting is not good. It's been a season-long thing where we haven't shot the ball well from (long) range, and that's set us back. It's one of the things we did well last year.
brings cannot great guys last passion results rode shoot shooting wave
We cannot shoot the ball. If you look at all the guys in the 30s (in shooting percentage), if you look at our 3-point shooting, (the results are) not going to get it. Last year, we rode the wave of great shooting. That brings passion and energy. When you're not shooting well in today's NBA, it's very deflating.
fight found last liked minutes resolve six spirit
We were caving in and then I thought they found a spirit and a resolve in the last six minutes defensively. I liked our fight in the last six minutes.

boston game games given last ourselves prior represents road standards team trip
We have to get a team that represents what our standards are. On the road trip and the Boston game prior to that, we represented ourselves well. In the last two games we have given very, very little to the game, to each other and to the organization.
finishing fought harder last problems street turned
We still have the same problems we had last spring: one-on-one defense; pick-and-roll defense; (we're a) high-turnover team; when it turned into a street fight, they fought harder than we did; and can we finish? Right now, we're not a finishing team. That's on me, that nothing's improved.
anyone centered despite excuses finding good happened last locker minimize results room season tracy versus year
Our season has centered around a lot of excuses about what we don't have and what's happened versus finding results despite what has happened. That's not to minimize how good Tracy is, certainly. Yet I feel we could have responded better. Take Yao out of the picture. Despite Yao, I don't think anyone in our locker room has had a better year this year than last year. That's on me, and that's on them.
good last lose loved results round team year
As much as I loved the team last year and still do, when you lose in the first round (of the playoffs) you have to make some moves. It's all about the results we get. Hopefully, we're going to get some good results.
huge last playing shot weapon
The way we're playing ... we're offensively inept. Last year, the 3-point shot was a huge weapon for us. This year, it's a huge detriment.
allen arenas body far gets last neither package size tape teaching team
I think in the last quarter, neither team would use it on a teaching tape for defense. I know Gilbert Arenas gets credit, but he's Allen Iverson in a different package as far as body size and strength. He's competitive. He's quick. He attacks. He makes 3s.
