bottom court definitely gotten home point rookie
It hasn't gotten to the point where it was like my rookie year, where we were getting booed every game, but it's definitely something we have to correct. It's just something we haven't done. We have to play a lot better on the home court -- that's the bottom line.
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 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.
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.

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.

We have to find a way to score. Offensively, we just have to tighten some things up. We felt like we got good looks.
great plays
We showed that we could make plays on them. But they made a great play at the end.
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.
building everybody knows series
Everybody in this building knows that the series isn't over.
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.
defense definitely needed playing scoring tyson
That was definitely needed for this team. He was playing like Tyson can, getting rebounds, playing defense and scoring some points.
