again knew missed shot
After Chauncey missed that shot at the end of the first overtime, I knew we had to get it back to him again because I knew he'd make up for it.
anxious easy fast free great missed normally word
I think we were anxious. Anxious is a great word for that. We missed some easy baskets, missed some free throws, made turnovers on the fast break, things like that, some things we normally don't do.
anxious easy free great missed normally settled word
I think anxious is a great word for that. We missed some easy baskets and some free throws...things we don't normally do. But once we settled down, we were fine.
lose miss rhythm
You want to keep your rhythm. I feel if I miss a game, I kind of lose my rhythm a little bit, so I try not to let that happen.
ball battle defensive detroit knows san
Everyone knows that when San Antonio and Detroit play, it's going to be a battle on the defensive end. The thing that we wanted to do is really concentrate on rebounding the ball and not let them get second-chance opportunities.
bench easier great minutes starting successful
The bench has done a great job. They are starting to give us some successful minutes now and that's been making it easier for all of us.
It's very, very, very, very helpful. ... Delfino can get out there and get some confidence.
advantage aggressive game harder home protect
Sunday's game is going to be a lot harder than Monday's game, because Sunday's game is at 12 o'clock. I don't think we've had one at 12 this year. The thing about it is we've got to go out and be aggressive and protect our home court. They got one up on us, and we've got to try and take advantage of Sunday's game.
last left picked seemed
It seemed like we just picked up where we left off last season. It didn't seem like a first game.
giving lift second unit
That second unit has been great. We aren't giving them a lift at all.
couple energy happen last talk tired
The last couple of games, I don't know if we're tired or what, but our energy just isn't there. We know we can score, that's not a problem. But when you talk about energy, it's got to happen on defense, and it wasn't there all night.
They can play better. But at the same time, we can play better, too.
ball means trying
They went to a zone, and that means they are trying to get the ball out of Rip's (Hamilton) hands, so we have to make shots.
attacking looked second team tired
They looked a little tired in the second half. Once we started attacking them, they just looked like a team with tired legs.
