defense good
It was some good defense and some good fortune. We'll take them both.
capable defense flow games good indicative playing second winning
We know we're capable of playing good defense and actually winning games with our defense. I think Game 1 was indicative of that and (in) Game 2, we were able to get in a good flow offensively, as well as put good defense on them in the second half.
defense points win
Defense is great, but if you don't put some points on the board, you're not going to win games.
coming extend focused half lead letting opposed second
We just focused on coming out in the second half and not letting up. We wanted to try extend our lead as opposed to just exchanging baskets.
focused move trying
We were really focused tonight. Even after the game, we were all businesslike. We did what we set out to do, and now we're just trying to move forward.
games knocked lost might stage three
We might have lost three games but look who we lost to. It was a different stage for us, and we got knocked back on our heels.
bruce himself letting skin
Dirk wasn't himself in letting Bruce Bowen kind of get under his skin a little bit. He's better than that. We're better than that.
playoff san team worry
We don't worry about what San Antonio is doing. We know we're a playoff team and we'll see how things fall.
road satisfied series somewhere team tying
We can't be satisfied with just tying up the series with this win. We're going to probably see this team somewhere down the road in the playoffs.
bad focus maybe teams
Maybe teams do focus on us a little more. But we just didn't play well offensively. It was just a bad night.
bad defensive everybody game guy held leash offensive pulls seldom taking
Have I come out of the game making a defensive mistake? Yeah. He doesn't really discriminate. Everybody is held accountable ... He seldom pulls a guy for an offensive mistake, taking a bad shot, anything like that. The leash is shorter on the defensive end.
Yeah, you know what I'm saying: Keep it coming, keep it coming. It's all good.
few hit quite shots
Obviously, I've hit a quite a few shots in this league.
bought gold hoping league nobody pot starting
Nobody in this league is going to tell you that they don't want to start. I've bought into it, hoping there's a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. But do I feel I could be starting on this team? Hell, yeah.
