against continue finish four fourth games good needed points quarter quarters row win
We needed a win bad. But we can't continue to play like this. . . . This has been four games in a row now. But I'm going to be positive. It was a good win for us. We needed it bad. I don't know how many points we scored in the fourth quarter (12) but we've got to finish fourth quarters off better. We'll take it. All day long. But we've got to play better against Chicago. Much better.
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.
fell felt fourth good hang last lead quarter three
We've kind of fell off in the fourth quarter of the last three games, so it felt good to get a lead and hang on to it.
execution fourth hurt played
We had no execution in the fourth and that really hurt us. That's a championship team, and they played like it.
We have to buckle down and play for our lives.
against average slap
To average 30 against Detroit, that's a slap in their face. They're not going to take that.
guys shut three whenever
Whenever I got the ball, I had two or three guys around me. They were really concentrating on me, to shut me down.
flaws hot knew offensive run
We knew that we had to get out and run tonight. But I don't know of any flaws that we had in our offensive game. Everyone got hot tonight.
environment game home hopefully tough
We're going home now and hopefully that will help. It's a different environment. This (The Palace) is a tough place to play. Hopefully we can get home and we will be able to ante-up for Game 3.
advantage smaller tried
T.J.'s smaller than him, so he tried to take advantage of that.
signs standard strive
Those signs are the real deal. They're our standard and what we strive for in every game.
game home intensity playing playoff
This was a playoff game for us. The intensity was there for us. This is (inexcusable), playing at home like this. It must change.
bigger bit chase guy rip
We're going to try to put a bigger guy on him and have T.J. chase around Rip (Richard Hamilton) a little bit more.
free
Fifty-one? Are you serious? That's outrageous. Wow. That's a lot of free throws.
