achieving continue focused goals
We're just focused on achieving our goals, and that's to continue to get better for the playoffs.
breathing felt good nice
I felt good. It was in good rhythm. I think I still had a nice breathing to it. I never felt winded, didn't feel fatigued.
bruce everybody fair last letting move responsibility share taking team upset
We got a lot to be upset about. We weren't the team we were for the last 20-some games. We were stagnant, didn't move the ball, Dirk wasn't himself, letting Bruce Bowen get under his skin. He's better than that. We're better than that. So everybody is taking their fair share of responsibility for that game. We all did uncharacteristic things.
against guys san
We got a lot of guys who can get it done. We're still a little shorthanded. But if we get those guys back against San Antonio, it'll be even better.
bill rule russell tap teach
You have to teach him the Bill Russell rule and tap it to yourself so we can get on the break.
almost cap home trip
This would really cap off the trip to come back home and win. It's almost like a six-game trip.
improving stronger
The only thing we need to be working on right now is getting stronger and improving our seeding for the playoffs.
means toe tonight
Tonight was a big night for us. But so is (Saturday) night. If we stub our toe (against New Orleans), then this one means nothing.
geared good playing race san talk toward worry
We would like to think that everything we're doing now is geared toward the playoffs. We know we're better than how we've been playing lately. It's been good to talk about the race with San Antonio, but we have to worry about getting back on track.
close games late normally
We're much better than what we showed tonight, especially late in the game. We normally close games out a lot better than what we did.
build dinner forward free goes guys hotels looking nice
We need to free our minds, get in hotels and build that camaraderie. It's still there, but I think that it goes up on the road. I'm looking forward to a nice dinner with the guys (Wednesday).
win
We've been doing it all season. It's become who we are. We feel we can win those kind of games.
chances coming everybody five guys healthy obviously ready run stretch takes
It only takes five to play, but obviously we want to get everybody back healthy and ready for the stretch run and for the playoffs. We don't want to take our chances with guys coming in and out. We've just got to with what we have. We know we have enough to get it done.
deliver depth good guys night pressure score speaks
It speaks to the depth of our team. Guys are going to have off nights. Dirk's going to deliver more often than not, but it's good that he doesn't feel pressure every night to score 25 or 30 points.
