both career court ends hope matter obviously playing point tough
Obviously (he's) a tough assignment, but at this point in my career I would hope to be playing on both ends of the court no matter who I am guarding.
both easier expect experience good huge last rookie second year
I expect a huge leap. They both had such good years last year, and you know from experience how much easier your second year is from your rookie year. We expect big improvements.
both everybody felt game knew throw
I'm just embarrassed and disappointed by the way we played. I felt like we were getting looks, we just couldn't throw it in the ocean. It was a big game for both teams. Everybody knew it. It was just a big letdown in pretty much all aspects.
bother game knowing realize
I realize it and I know what's going on. It used to really bother me, I used to let it get to me. At this point, I just go into every game knowing I'm not going to get any calls.
both everybody game knew point
It was a big game for both teams. Everybody knew it. It was just embarrassing to the point the way we played.
bother calls couple game knowing
It's something that used to really bother me in my first couple of years. But at this point, I go into every game knowing I'm not going to get any calls and just play through it. What else can you do?
affect bit bothering three
It's up and down and a little bit painful, but it doesn't affect me too much. It's been bothering for 2-1/2 to three weeks. It's not a big deal.
couple game guys step stops tonight
We made a couple of big plays. We had a couple of stops and that's what we need to do. We need to have guys step up when it really counts, when the game is on the line, and make plays, Tonight we did that.
build counts couple focused game guys spot starting stay step
We made a couple big plays, got a couple stops. That's what we need to do, have guys step up when it really counts with the game on the line. Hopefully, we're starting to build on something. We just need to stay focused and come to do it every night. We can't have any letdowns with the spot we're in right now.
care definitely game good home winning
We've just got to take care of home court, a place we haven't been very good this year. If we can go into the All-Star Game with a three-game winning streak, it definitely would help.
beat bunch continue detroit felt game key pay playing rebounds second team turned win won
We kind of beat ourselves. We didn't get key rebounds and we turned it over a bunch of times in the second half. A team like Detroit makes you pay for that. I think we're all disappointed. We wanted to win this game and felt like we should have won it. We just have to continue to play this way and hopefully, be playing in the postseason.
ahead care fate team
We got an opportunity. We've just got to take care of business. If we do that, we've got a shot. We kind of have fate in our own hands, because we play the team ahead of us twice.
dominant foul players
To get Shaq in foul trouble, it's big. He's one of the most dominant players to ever play.
good shots
We feel like we got good looks. I thought all my shots were going in. When they don't, you get frustrated. We've just got to find a way.
