came early effort energy excuse flat home maintained next rest run
We came out flat today. We have been at home for a while but it's no excuse for us to come out like we did. They went on an early run and maintained that energy the rest of the game. We have to come out with a better effort next game.
people sure teammates whipped
That's embarrassing. People don't care? I care. I'm sure a lot of other of my teammates care. We're just out there getting our tails whipped and it's really embarrassing.
apologize ball character court number teammates trying win
First of all, I want to apologize to my coach, teammates and the organization. That was way out of my character and I was wrong. I was frustrated, thought I had been fouled a number of times trying to get the ball up the court and I just really wanted to win this game.
blake continue freshman fun game guys hopefully learned lots playing push since sophomore team understand year
Blake and I have been playing with each other since his freshman year and my sophomore year (at Maryland) so we have lots of fun playing with one another. We understand each other and the game. We've learned a lot since we've been in the game so hopefully we can continue to push the young guys on the team and hopefully we can continue to get better.
certain expect guys
Certain guys take it personal. If I need to do something better, I expect someone to come tell me, because I can take constructive criticism. I don' think a lot of us can take it.
great guards point three top
Baron is one of the better guards in the league. He is probably one of the top three point guards. He is a great passer and he can also defend. ... He had a great day.
came good looked watched
I was right there and watched the whole time. It looked good -- just came up short.
four however row
We'll take the four in a row however we can get it.
basketball demand double easy guy
It's easy looks. When you have a guy who's going to demand a double team, someone's going to get easy looks.
confidence lost
I really don't even know what to say. I've lost before, but never like this. We're just a confidence-booster for other teams.
aggressive dallas denver games help slip win
I really wanted to win this game. We had Dallas and we had Denver and we let those games slip away down the stretch. I really wanted to go out there and be aggressive and help us get this win.
guys learning playing
Those guys are learning the game. They're playing with more confidence.
growing hopefully playing smart solid
We're growing up, man. We're growing up as a team. We're playing smart and we're solid for 48 minutes. Hopefully we'll keep on going in that direction.
aggressive both came coach drew ends games guys heart last played six struggled
We've struggled the last six games not getting any wins, so we wanted to come out with a lot of heart and be aggressive on both ends of the floor. Guys came out and we executed. Before the game, coach ( Nate McMillan ) drew a big heart on the chalkboard. He wanted to see what we were made of. We came out and played well tonight.
