bounce definitely deserved happened lucky year
We deserved that one lucky bounce at the end with how we've been working this year and everything that has happened to us during the year. We definitely deserve that bounce. If he would have made that or if he got fouled, it would have been Armageddon.
I'm saying, with the way things are right now, I want to come back.
easier focus happy head minutes problem three
I have no problem in that role. As long as we are winning, I'm more than happy to come off the bench. It's easier. The first two or three minutes you can focus on what's gong on, and is easier to get your head into the game.
beat talent team twice
They beat us twice and we don't feel like they're a better team than we are. I feel like we have a lot more talent than they do.
ball controlled guy means needs point rest role step tempo turn
To have Brett come in and give us controlled tempo and not turn the ball over, that's good. A new guy like that to step into the role of point guard, that means a lot. He needs to keep that up the rest of the season.
believe excellent progress road trip
There's not much we can say. We believe we got better on this road trip and made progress as a team. He's just an excellent player. He's and an NBA-caliber player.
believe clicking deep effort gets meetings near seem soul start stuff team together
There's not much we can do. The effort is there. We are trying. Stuff is not going our way right now. We have to believe that, in the near future, things are going to start clicking because we know we can do it. That's all we can do. There are no need for meetings or deep soul searching. It gets old so fast. This team has the talent, but we can't seem to get it all together for one game.
crazy crowd figured points
I see the crowd going crazy so I figured it went in. I said, 'All right, we'll take it.' Those two points were big.
behind cracks crowd defensive good
They are a good defensive team. It was hard, but you always find cracks in the defense. But with the crowd behind you it's a lot easier.
ball books-and-reading choked shot
The way they shot the ball was for the books, and we kind of choked on offense.
bus laughter picks practice win winning
After a win like this, it just picks you right up. Practice is going to be really energetic, there's going to be laughter on the bus - everything's going to be on a different level. That's what winning does for you.
learn needed time
As a team, I think we just needed to get some time to learn about each other.
arizona effort game hard knew lack practices ready relaxed took
I don't know (what happened). I wouldn't say it was a lack of effort or we relaxed after the Arizona game. The practices we had after the Arizona game, we were focused. We all knew what we wanted. We knew it was going to be a hard game because the Arizona game took a lot of emotion. We were all ready to play, but we just couldn't get out there.
believe burst lack next pull steps
I believe there are a lot of next steps for this team. There's never a lack of effort. We are focused. We know what we want to do, but there's always something different every game. (At home) we managed to find a burst of energy. We managed to pull through it.
