We got stops and made shots when it counted. When you hold a team to 38 percent from the field you give yourself a pretty good chance of winning.
I've told you guys I'm not going to force anything. Flip had a wide-open three. He hit the big shot for us.
The third quarter was a disaster. We weren't able to counter their attack. They made big shots and we weren't able to make any shots. We knew they would heat up but we didn't counter it.
D.J. caught fire. He's very valuable when he's making shots and even when he's talking. He's always talking, of course. He brought his 'A' game.
I was feeling pretty good. Once (the shot clock) makes it down to 10 seconds, I believe I can take my man one-on-one.
It looked good. It took forever. It took about 10 seconds. It seemed like it never came down. Those are the toughest shots to make for a great shooter like Gilbert.
We didn't want to get blown out on national TV. I just wanted to be assertive and just try to hit the open shots and drive to the basket, which I'm always capable of doing. So the MVP was never in my mind; just winning the ballgame.
We shot terrible tonight. It's not like we didn't have good shots. We had great looks ... You have to give it to them. They made us look bad.
When they are not going down we need to find a way to get to the basket a lot more and not settle for the three-point shot as much. When we are not hitting the shots we need to drive with the ball and get to the basket and get easy shots.
Jason made some tough shots with a hand in his face.
It had something to do with it. I couldn't get as much lift, enough spring when I wanted to drive and penetrate and my shot got blocked a couple of times.
I went at four seconds, got to my comfort zone and made a tough shot. They were not going to get an opportunity to go down and make a shot on us.
We made some good stops and we contested their shots. I think last time we played them they shot around 60 percent. W were able to contest those shots and we were able to attack and get a lead and we didn't let go.
I just didn't make the shots I wanted to in the second half.
