game last playoffs wanna winning worry
We just wanna worry about winning this last game and going into the playoffs with some momentum.
feels miss shots taken
I've never taken that many shots in a game. I know what it feels like to miss all those shots, though.
good knocking offense open shots within
The shots we got were within our offense and they were good looks, but we just weren't knocking them down. We got a lot of open shots that we missed.
felt good left shot
The shot felt good when it left my hand.
Is it about Ron? If it's about Ron, I'm not answering.
best drives frustrated gets hard hungry knows motivates people player plays reason ron stuff time understand wants
People don't understand that a lot of stuff he's done and the reason he plays so hard and is so hungry is because he wants to be great. I think a lot of time Ron gets frustrated because he knows he's better than what he's been playing. He wants to be the best player in the game. That's what drives him, that's what motivates him.
last played
We feel like we have a lot to prove, ... But not to the world, to ourselves. We know we're better than the way we played last year.
couple hope shots stop tough work
Vince is one of those guys, you can't stop him, but you just hope you can make him take some tough shots and hope he has an off night. I'm going to make him work for everything out there. And hopefully, I can get away with a couple of fouls.
excuse lose
There's no excuse to lose to those guys. We know that we're a better team.
cut game lead ran
We got back in the game and kind of ran out of gas. We didn't keep pushing. Once we cut the lead we kind of relaxed.
hit
We couldn't hit shots. That's what it all boiled down to. It was very frustrating, but at the same time, we got the looks.
blow decisions hard holding lead learn matter somebody
We have to make better decisions on holding leads. We get a lead in another team's building, then give up the lead. It's hard to get it back, no matter who you're playing. We have to learn how to get a lead and blow somebody out. We haven't done that in a while.
felt hands left shot
That was the shot we wanted. It felt good. When it left my hands I thought it was going in. Things just didn't go our way tonight.
carry chance great hit league mike team
Mike has always been a great player. He's getting a chance now to really show the league that he can carry a team and hit big shots.
