We got some stops and a lot of fast break points tonight. That was the key to the win.
It feels good to get my career-high in points, but that doesn't really matter. I'm just glad that we won the game. We need to get as many wins as we can here at home.
We played hard tonight. Our top guns weren't in the game so we had to play hard. I got to the free throw line a lot. It was a good win for us.
We need every game from here on out. We're trying to put together a couple of strings, win nine out of 10, to see what we can do and make a run for the playoffs.
We needed this win and we definitely thought it was a win we could get, so we just had to come out and get it.
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.
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 was just trying to be more aggressive. It might have (deflated the Nets). I'm not going to say that it was the main cause of us winning the game.
We got stops when we needed to and that's the main thing. Our stops turned into transition points.
Every team has runs in this league and it is how you respond to those runs (that's important). We got the stops when we needed to. They kept fighting back and we stood all the things they were coming back with.
We played good, we played together. We played a good defensive game. We made them take tough shots. We were making our shots and came out on top.
We have to take these two road wins, and take it up a notch from here.
We needed it more. We weren't hitting too many shots, but we pulled it out in the end. I know we it gave it our all, even though our shots weren't going in.
We got the stops when we needed to and started making shots at the end.
