game great hanging job last minute team until
Our team did a great job of hanging around until the last minute so when we had to make a 3, we'd be in the game still,
approach biggest effort game high pick
I think you have to. You have to approach it with a sense of urgency, more than ever. This is the biggest game of our season, so we have to come really enthusiastic and pick up our intensity. Give it your all. That's all we want to see happen, that the effort is at a high level.
against atlanta bring encouraged focused good hard hats hunt lives lost played playoff reason sacramento wednesday wins
I was encouraged by the wins against Atlanta and Denver. And even when we lost against Phoenix, I thought that we played as well as we could. (Against New York), for some reason we weren't focused like we need to. We're in the playoff hunt for our lives right now. We have to bring out hard hats Wednesday against a good Sacramento team. We've got to play (well) or we could be out of this.
discredit miss time wants welcome
He (Mason) wants to be with a winner, not to discredit New Orleans. He did so much for the organization, and we're going to miss him, but at the same time we're going to welcome Jamaal in.
bad deal good move
We've got to move on now and deal where we're at. We're in the playoffs, that's a good thing. If we weren't, that would be a bad thing.

He was our anchor and played the best game I've seen him play in three years here. If we can get that type of performance every night, we'll be in great shape.

He goes to the hole among the trees and gets knocked down a lot. This time he didn't get up.
encouraged head
He encouraged me to keep my head up and keep playing.
afford cannot couple few fourth happened last minutes slow starting
We're starting off slow (in the fourth quarter). The first couple minutes we just floundered away. It's happened to us the last few nights. We cannot afford to do that.
eight exercise game gotten great job knew nine phoenix pushes three won
We knew we would get our exercise in this game. Phoenix consistently pushes it and we just got outran. We could have won this game if we could have gotten down to eight or nine in the fourth, but they did a great job with (using) the three as a dagger.
determined loved start
We were determined to start off well. Loved it. We need that every night.
hopefully worked
We'll see what happens. Hopefully we can get something worked out.
hit night open rhythm
We struggled. We had a lot of open looks, but it wasn't our night to hit them. We just never got in a rhythm from the three-point line. But once again, we try not to live by that.
bit game shot shots struggled
We struggled in Game 1, and shot a little bit better in Game 2, but not enough. We need to make shots with this team. That's what we do best.
