coming games tough
We got two tough games coming up, but if we get them both, we're right back in the hunt. It's a long way from over.
guys inside outside presence pressure
We're going to have to get better on the inside presence because that relieves the pressure so guys can get their outside shots.
mentally physically travel
We're going to have to be mentally and physically ready. When you have no depth, the travel can really take its toll.
attitude good start talk
When you talk about good attitude and working hard, start with him.
call confidence extension guard hot knows leadership offense point teammates
With the leadership and the confidence he has in his teammates and the unselfishness that he has as that point guard now, he's able to orchestrate. He knows who's hot and where they want to get it. He knows the offense well enough now to know what to call and it's like an extension of the bench.
caught exactly likes matt shot strong took
We got exactly what we wanted. Julian likes that shot that he took and Matt caught it and was a little strong on it.
bench coming floor guys points score
We don't have the bench points coming in. So the guys on the floor have to do the scoring, and Julian and Ahmet didn't score tonight.
beat effort full guys hard matter team time
We can't just show up and think we're going to win. We're having a hard time with guys out and all that, but so are they. No matter who's out there, we're the kind of team that has to give full effort or we can get beat by anybody.
came couple dropped fire hit last locker room run shots
We came out of the locker room with a little fire, but it didn't last very long. Kemp hit a couple of shots on us when we were making a run and we dropped our heads.
bit fast floor lost push spots transition trying work
We've lost our transition game, we've got to get that back and the fast break. We're working on trying to get out and get down the floor a little bit better and work on our break. We have to find our spots and push it.
pick spots
We have to play our game. We'll pick our spots to run, but we can't run-and-gun. That's their style.
cling fatigue helping instead man playing team tendency
When that fatigue hits, you have a tendency to cling to your man instead of helping and playing team defense.
forward games home left looking needs regular road seven team wants win
We have only seven games left in the regular season, and we can't keep looking forward only to the home games. This team needs to win on the road if it wants to get recognized.
chance game last pace win
You just want to have a chance to win the game at the end. So we want the game to be at the same pace as the last time.
