badly basketball beat extra knew last motivation solid time
We knew how badly they beat us last time so there was some extra motivation to come out and just play a solid basketball game.
care less peak playoffs time trying
We are trying to peak at the right time and go into the playoffs with a lot of confidence. I could care less who we play.
close guess guy looks lost playoff quicker time tough
Looks like he lost a little weight. Looks lighter, quicker on his feet. He's going to be a tough guy to stop. It's close to that time now, so I guess he's getting in playoff form.
beat best early jump life point regardless rival stay team time
When you come out to play a rival you never know. Regardless of the up-and-downs, you are going to get the best effort. It was important for us to come out focused. You want to jump on them early and stay up. If you give the team life at any point in time they can come back and beat you.
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.
confident detroit game gave last opportunity played playing test time
Just one game at a time. Detroit is playing unbelievable basketball. This is a test for us. The last time we played in Detroit, they gave us one. So it's an opportunity for us to come back. I feel like we're a better team, a more confident team.
game hopefully taking time win
Hopefully 15 is not just the number. Hopefully we can win 20 (in a row). It's just taking it one game at a time and just keep going from here.
thomas tim
I'm going to make Tim Thomas come here. So it doesn't matter. Only kidding.
hard practice push time
It's important to us to find time to rest. There's not much practice time and it's go, go, go. We want to push hard early.
best hoping playing time
This is the best time to be playing our best basketball. I'm hoping it can only be better.
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.
coming expect kept second step talent win
With our talent, when we step on the court, we expect to win and can't expect anything less, ... They just kept coming and coming and out-hustled us in the second half.
aspects easy either hit job shots
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.
basketball consistent given grinding needs played playing whatever
We're just consistent right now, playing hard, grinding it out. Whatever kind of basketball needs to be played on any given night, we're playing it.
