Shaq in foul trouble makes life easy for everybody.

We didn't get the job done either way. We didn't hit shots and we made it a little too easy for them in all aspects of the game.

We made them take tough shots. We got the rebound and kind of got into transition, tried to get as many easy buckets and make it tough for them, and take them out of their comfort zone.

I think our defense intensity really helped us because we were able to get a lot of easy baskets which allowed us to get some confidence and for us to feel good about ourselves.

The second half was a different story. We picked our defense up and attacked them and tried to put pressure on them for a change and try and create easy baskets. It was the turning point for us.

Life's not real easy right now. But I guess I'd rather have it this way than not at all.

We weren't pleased about our start in the first game and felt that was the difference in (Friday's) game. Tonight it was about energy and effort, and that's what we showed right from the tip.

We weren't happy with our effort. (Jefferson is) a big factor for us, but we can still really put forth a better effort.

We had that energy. We had a lead and our bench kept the lead. We didn't have to play catch-up, which is real tough to do. We had a comfortable lead and we were able to play basketball and not overdo it (or) rush.
good protect road team
We feel we're a good team and we always want to protect home, but we have to do it on the road as well.
against best compete hit late left mental mistakes open shots teams wide
We feel we can compete against the best teams in the league. But against the better teams, you can't have the mental mistakes late in the game, because that's when the better team will prevail. They hit some big shots and we left them wide open to hit some big shots.
