It's going to be big. We've been winning at home and we're going to keep trying to push that home record up.
I tried to be a bit more aggressive instead of being so passive and just trying to get a shot up and keeping the energy up. I was just trying to make things happen for my team. I was trying to make them guard me and if I had seen somebody open I would get them.
This is very frustrating. There wasn't any energy out there, ... We had no communication out there tonight. We need to work on our problems, because I know they can be fixed.
It was still embarrassing to watch, but you've got to learn from it and make it the exact opposite the next time around. A lot of it is effort. We came out lackadaisical. You could tell by our body movement. It was embarrassing, and nobody wants to be embarrassed on national television.
It's a big road trip and every game is crucial. It was just a case where we were a little more aggressive. Once we made some shots, everything just started to click on all cylinders.
A lot of days when you don't play you're just sitting at the hotel doing nothing.
We're going to keep trying to move our way up. We hit a little hot streak and hopefully we can keep it up.
I know he might put us over that hump that we need. The way he plays, he plays good defense, he can score too. Maybe that can pick up the intensity in everybody else.
Every win from here on out is big for us. We knew Utah was right behind us, and this would have been a devastating loss for us if we would have lost this one.
If we play defense like we've been playing and move the ball on (offense). We'll have a great chance.
Kenny does all the little things. I can't remember him taking a lot of bad shots. He does all the stuff that role players do.
I talked to Ron a couple of times. He comes to play and he plays hard every night. That's what we need, regardless of what he does off the court.
He's a threat on both ends of the court. He plays good defense. Hopefully that'll rub off on everybody else.
He's going to bring it. He's going to come to play every night. And that's the type of players I like playing with.
