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.
experience games good helped poised
We got out really good and set the tone. Our experience in the big games helped a lot. We were a little more poised than they were, I think.
ball good
We just couldn't put the ball in the basket. We couldn't make shots. We got good looks.
flow good starting
We're really starting to gel, starting to move. We've got our flow going as a starting unit. It's good to see.
conference finals good guy missed shot team took
We thought we were a pretty good team and we could go far. We were one shot away from going to the conference finals that year, but unfortunately the guy who took the shot missed it.
ball good guys jump key pick teams three wonderful
My goal, especially this year, has been from the jump ball to attack. Be aggressive, make teams key on me. If you want to put three guys on me, then it's R.J.'s turn. You have to pick your poison. It's wonderful to have. We have off-nights when it's not going, but more times than not, if one of us isn't going, then (the other) two of us are going to have a good game.
best committed compete everybody feels good gotten job looks poked team teams turned whether worst
We've just committed to this team and turned things around. We've gotten results. It feels good. It looks good and everybody kind of has their chests poked out now. We want to feel like we can compete with anybody, whether it's the best teams or worst teams, and still get the job done executing.
afraid capable committed everybody feeling good great talent talking team thinking
It's exciting. It's a great feeling talking about it and not being afraid to say, 'Yeah, we have a good team, and we're going to be capable of competing. It's great to see everybody thinking that way. I think everybody's committed to this team because of the talent we have.
giving good guys opportunity thankful thrilled
It's a good feeling, I'll tell you that. There's a lot of guys who've been phenomenal, unreal, so I'm just thankful for the opportunity to be here and I'm thrilled that he's giving me the opportunity to start.
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.
blown good step
We still think we're a good team. We didn't get blown out of here (in Cleveland), for one. We're capable. We just have to step it up a little bit.
containing good job rebounds score shots stepped
I think we did a good job of containing him, but he stepped up. He didn't score a lot of points, but he made shots and got rebounds that were big for them.
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.
