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.
finishing games good improve job quarters starts teams
Finishing out games and finishing out teams is something we need to improve on. It starts by finishing out quarters and we did a good job of that tonight.
defensive except explain ready team
I don't know what they shot, but we're a defensive team and should have had it on that end tonight. I really don't know how to explain it, except to say we weren't ready on that end.
fought half hard second teams totally
We were two totally different teams out there from the first half to the second half. We fought hard and got back into it.
breaks foul hard picking rhythm silly team
The big thing is, it kind of breaks up our rhythm a little bit. We try to play it a little more up-tempo and then, just every time, we're picking up the silly foul or the other team is getting to the free-throw line. It makes it hard to play.
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.
grown talked team
It's something we've talked a lot about. Hopefully, we have grown a lot this season. It's a part of being a young team in this league.
good pull realized shots team
Everyone on the team realized that if we started making good stops, we would get right back in the game. We did that and made some big shots and we were able to pull it out.
everybody line reason team whatever
It's unexplainable. Go up and down a line of this team and everybody would say the same thing. For whatever reason as a group, we weren't ready.
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.
dominant foul players
To get Shaq in foul trouble, it's big. He's one of the most dominant players to ever play.
