carry continue dig fight high hole hope level ourselves road seems
We play at a high level at home, and I hope we can continue to do that and carry that on the road. It seems like on the road we always dig ourselves a hole and have to fight out of it.
care
If we win, take care of our business, it can happen.
believe game learn night
We know it's there. He just has to find out how to become a pro, and incorporate his game and learn the way he should play night after night. He'll get there. I really believe that.
care game matter points
We didn't care that Chauncey hadn't scored. We know that it doesn't matter if he has no points or 30 points, he can take over any game at the end.
bring last looked team
We didn't bring our 'A' game. We didn't even bring our 'B' game. Our last two (losses), we looked like a team that wanted to go home.
confusion last star
We don't have a star like last year. But we don't have the controversy and the confusion either.
dominate good guys tough
We didn't want Yao to dominate down low, but we wanted to make it as tough on him as possible. If Yao was going to get his shots, we didn't want the other guys to go off. I thought, overall, we did a good job.
dominate good
We didn't want Yao to dominate down low, but the thing that makes it tough, you have to give up something. If he's getting his, you just can't let everyone else have a good night.
fear played win
When it was all about V.C. the Raptors played with fear, and that's not how you win games.
attack basket effective goal hitting jump shots
Our goal is to attack the basket and put the onus on the referees to make the calls. We weren't hitting our jump shots outside, so we had to be effective some other way.
attitude bring building early focus goal regardless teams throw
Our goal and our focus is to bring the same attitude regardless (of the opponent). We just try to take teams out early and throw them out of our building by any means.
aspects committing covers saying trusting win
Our willingness to win. I think, by saying that, it covers all aspects of the game: our willingness to win for 48 minutes, being aggressive, trusting each other. All that. Just committing to the team.
bring great guy half mainly second
Our bench, mainly Cliff, was outstanding. Something in the second half ignited them. It was great to see because you were able to bring in another guy and still keep going.
commitment defend
I think we make a commitment to defend them.
