I don't even know how he got it off, honestly. I think he shot it with his left hand. I went after his right hand, thinking he was going to float it with the time going down like that, but somehow he got it up there and it stayed up there on the rim and went in. It was just a great shot, a great effort by those guys to turn a turnover into a fast-break that quickly and get it to the rim.
Nobody said this would be easy. Everybody said the opposite.
Now we've got the pressure on them, down two games. Now we've got to go into Arco and really get this first one. That puts the ultimate pressure -- elimination -- on people.
Unbelievable. It was great. We just stood around and kind of looked at him. He made big shots and got on a roll there.
With home-court advantage, we are in a spot that we want to be in. We are going to do what we can with it. We had a good season. We had some rough patches, but those are the times that we come together and solidify ourselves as a team. Health is the most important thing for us. I am feeling good right now and with that in mind we are really coming together as we head into the playoffs.
We've got a bunch of unselfish guys that don't really care who gets it done.
We all didn't have that edge we needed. Offensively, they did kind of whatever they wanted to do. We can't win games like that.
Tonight was a good game for us because we were able to grind it out and find a way to get a win down the stretch. I was able to get some shots to go, and when they doubled me, I was able to find my teammates.
We had a great season, a franchise record. It's all gone now.
We need to get some of that funk out. We've had some bad games and some losses at home.
We need to get some of that funk out. We have had some bad games, some losses at home and we got a very good team coming into our house tomorrow (Utah) and we're going to have to gear up and get that win.
We don't market. We just try to win.
We put ourselves in a great position, but we gave up two in a row at home. We still have the lead in the West, and in the division and we're going to try and hold onto that.
We did a pretty solid job on defense. We got in the passing lanes, got some steals.
