We want to be better than where we are. The fifth spot is what our goal is right now but it is tight. It is a matter of us winning games down the stretch. Maybe we can get a three- or four-game winning streak going.

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.
