great plays
We showed that we could make plays on them. But they made a great play at the end.
feet gets great guys
It was a big-time shot. He's a great shooter. He's one of those guys that if he gets his feet set, you know it's going in.
defense good great played problems since team worried
I've got enough problems; I'm not worried about what's going through his head. I just think it's just been really good team defense; our weak-side defense has been great since we played them.
felt great hard nice plays
It's hard to look at positives, but we did a lot of nice things. We felt like we could make plays on them, and we did. They just made a great play at the end, and it's unfortunate.
against challenge definitely great hard players playing
I try to get up for the challenge of playing against great players all the time, and he's definitely one of the elite. So we'll go out there, play hard and see what happens.
great support
It's a great atmosphere; kind of like a college-type atmosphere. It's great to see the way they come out and support this team.
great level raised
He's been unbelievable. He's been great all season, but he especially has raised his level of play down the stretch.
anybody good job mental mentality remember talk toughness
We talk a lot about mental toughness and the mentality of approaching the game, and we've done a good job with it. I can't remember anybody not being ready, and we just have to keep doing it.
looking shot taking tried whether
We just tried to be more aggressive, especially on our pick-and-rolls. It was also about just making plays, whether it was taking my shot or looking for other people.
coming describe everybody game knows ready
We weren't ready. I don't know how to describe it. It's unfortunate. Everybody coming in knows how big a game this is, so to not be ready is unacceptable.
felt gets good shots
We have to find a way to score. We felt like we got good looks. I thought my shots were going in. When they don't, it just gets frustrating.
felt good
We have to find a way to score. Offensively, we just have to tighten some things up. We felt like we got good looks.
hopes playing time turn week
The time is now. We have to do it now, or in a week or two we could be out of it and not playing for anything. If we have any hopes of being in the playoffs, we have to turn it around.
loose
They all got loose on us in the fourth.
