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.
correct effort happy level regardless road whether
Regardless of whether (Jefferson) was back or not, we just weren't happy with our effort (on the road trip). That's what we wanted to correct - we wanted the effort level to be there.
care looking playing regardless rolling whoever
Regardless of our seeding, as long as we're playing well and rolling into the playoffs, that's what we care about. We're just looking at whoever we play, we have to be prepared.
deny eight far hands push shot tougher trying
I was trying to deny him as long as possible, at least eight of the 13 seconds, just to make it a tougher shot and push him out as far as I could. I just wanted to keep my hands up and make it a tough shot.
ball call felt trying
I was trying to make a play get the ball and be aggressive. I felt I could get in there and get a call but to no avail.
fall
I was going for the win. It did everything but fall in.
bricks felt playing ton
It felt like I was playing with a ton of bricks on my chest.
against chance definitely feels next running tim
It feels better. (Trainer Tim Walsh) said give it a chance to heal, give it a day, no running and see how it feels the next day. If not then, definitely the next (game against Detroit). I definitely want to play Tuesday.
focus key level results
I think our level of focus is the key right now. The results are getting wins.
moving
It doesn't do anything. It makes me laugh. OK. Fine. Whatever. Moving on.
points top
I think turnovers were key, on top of them getting points off our turnovers. That was the big thing.
coach good job lane positions putting
I was able to get in the lane and make things happen. Coach (Lawrence Frank) did a good job of putting me in different positions to succeed.
