burned definitely guards hung straight trying
We could never get it straight to what we were trying to get to. It was a combination. Our guards were getting hung up on the pick. They definitely burned us on it.
figure might plays points ready realize team ways
That would be nice. But I've come to realize that might not happen. I'm just going to be ready. You've got to be ready for the ball, you've got to make cuts, you've got to find other ways to score, put points on the board, make the team better. If I don't get plays called for me, I'll figure something else out.
bench came eight fighting games good guys last loses message night row showing team
That's what I get for showing our guys a film of how good we were defensively last night (at Houston). We started out good, then we got soft. Our bench came in and was soft. A team that loses eight games in a row is going to come out fighting for their lives. That message was delivered, and we didn't respond.
bunch came game good move played rebound season
We've said this a bunch this season ... but we really played the game well and came up a rebound or two short. If we can move on from this and build, then it's a good thing.

shoot shots wants willing
The important thing is to not let (Anthony) shoot the shots he wants and to have him shoot the ones -we're willing to give up.
based eight fair five mavericks playing seed short
The Mavericks are getting the short end of the stick. They're playing the five seed when they should be playing the seven. The fair way to do it is just seed one through eight based on records.

careless credit difference easy game points selection shot turned
The difference in the game was our careless turnovers that turned into easy points for them. Our turnovers and shot selection weren't very good. I credit their defense.
closer extremely game good hard played score
The game was a lot closer than the score indicates. They played extremely hard and had a good showing.
