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.
hole trying
At the end I was just trying to get to the hole and get a call. As you can see I didn't get the call. So I was just trying to concentrate and make the shot. I just wanted to be aggressive.
games goal hopefully impressive means point trying win wins
At this point in time, we are just trying to win as many games as possible. Some ugly, hopefully some impressive wins, some wins are going to be by luck. By any means it should be our goal right now.
best caught coming continue far hurt playing protect rivalry trying
We're trying to protect home, continue our streak. I think getting caught up in the whole rivalry thing, it can hurt us as far as not coming out and playing our best basketball.
best care dangerous five fortunate guys player team together trying
I don't care who is on the other team. If they only have five guys to play with we're trying to win. It's unfortunate for them and fortunate for us. Sometimes when your best player isn't in the lineup that's usually when a team can be very dangerous because they play together and they play real loose.
basket trying
I was just trying to get to the basket and have the referees make the call,
aggressive trying
I was just trying to be aggressive and get to the hole.
avoid ball basket both charges patient took trying tying
I was just tying to put the ball in the basket. I just wanted to be patient and take what I could get. Just wanted to go to the basket and avoid him, because he'd already took two charges on me, so I was concentrating on trying to do both things.
basket defense gave mix pay playing trying
I was just trying to take what the defense gave me and mix it up a little bit. If (the defender) was playing up on me, just trying to make him pay and go to the basket and get to the line.
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.
ball basket draw lead needed opportunity patient situation stretched trying
I wasn't trying to draw any fouls. When you get in a situation like that, you've got to put the ball in the basket. It was an opportunity where the basket was needed and it stretched the lead out. I just wanted to be patient and take what I could get.
games general hopefully passing stepped team tough trying win
The team in general stepped it up, got in passing lanes and made them take tough shots. We're trying to win as many games as possible, some ugly, hopefully some impressive.
fast learn series trying
That series went by so fast. At first, they're all fast because you're trying to learn and get comfortable at the same time.
