continued gave punch win
We withstood their punch and we continued to fight. We never gave up. We always thought we were going to win the game.
attack definitely guys playing winning
We didn't have that sense of urgency, you can definitely say that. We didn't come out and play the way we have been playing on this winning streak. I don't think guys are getting complacent. We just didn't come out and attack right away.
backwards definitely feels playing step urgency winning
We didn't have that sense of urgency that we've been playing with during this winning streak. This definitely feels like a step backwards with the way we've been playing.
familiar far guys settled win
We've settled in as far as who's going to be out there on the court. Guys are getting familiar with what we have to do to win games.
biggest feeling game games gave ourselves resilient stay totally trying win
The biggest part is that the way we're approaching the game is totally different. We feel like we know we're going to win and we're not going into games feeling like we're not going to give ourselves a chance. I think before, we were just trying to stay in games and we weren't as competitive down the stretch. We kind of gave up. Now we're a very resilient group.
came needs sacrifice takes talk wants whatever willing win
I don't need to talk to him. He needs to come tell me what he wants me to do. From when he came here I was willing to make the sacrifice and I'm still willing to do that. I'm still willing to do whatever it takes to win in New York.
contribute far playing trying
Everybody's trying to do what they can to win. No one is out there playing to lose, everyone is trying to contribute as far as playing defense, playing smart, playing together.
aggressive both came ends everybody focused losing ready
We just wanted to get off that losing streak. Everybody came out focused and ready to play on both ends of the court. It was great. We were very aggressive tonight.
allow points ready team
We weren't ready like those guys. You can't allow a team to have 66 points at halftime.
arm game knew
I didn't want to make it worse. I knew I was hurt, though, when I went back into the game and couldn't get my arm to go up without any pain.
answer far
I don't even really have an answer for you. Right now, as far as for the way we're playing, we're going backwards, we're not going forward.
coach defense good group guys kept liked offense played playing
I think the way we played, the continuity, the offense and defense was really good. Coach kept a good group of guys on the court. We really got a feel for each other. We were playing like we played with each other before ... I liked it a lot.
What do you want me to say? We're losing. We're not winning, it's not good.
court love mind tired
I was kind of tired tonight, but I play. When I get on the court that is all I do. I love basketball. Mentally, I just had to get my mind in another place.
