checked gone reason
It was just one of those things I wanted to get checked out. I could have gone back in the game, but there was no reason to.
last
Not to put down last year's team, ... but we got better.
I'm doing it for my knees, more than anything. It's not for show.
against best fell game great short tried
It was my best game ever, and in a loss. I just tried my best and played, and we fell short against a great, great team.
block great
It was a great block and probably the play of the game.
best game great performance third
It was probably our best game of the year. That was just a great performance in the third quarter.
encourage game goes intensity involved next pick playoffs three
It's very important that we make it to the playoffs and that we pick our game up in these next 19 games. The intensity goes up and we've got to pick it up. It is new (to many of the Bucks). You just try to encourage them and tell them what's going on. I've been involved in the playoffs three times and it's a challenge.
totally
It's totally not fair, at all, what happened.
concern start team
That's been the one concern for our team - start out better, start out fast.
last love nba players second shot
That's a shot that all NBA players love to have, that last second shot,
aggressive
That's disappointing. I don't know if we weren't aggressive enough or if it was their defense.
finding help needed quite teammates tonight
That's something I needed tonight to help my confidence. I haven't had a night like that in quite a while. My teammates were finding me.
experience game hurts played stretch tough tougher
That's the frustrating thing. We've played them tough every game and just come up short. I think it's their championship experience and getting tougher down the stretch that hurts us.
advantage needed philly teams tonight win
Tonight we just said we needed a win bad. Desperately. Philly is losing. The other teams are losing, and we have to take advantage of this.
