basketball everybody focusing game good helped importance knows meeting york
I feel like everybody knows what is at stake. Everybody knows the importance of every game. We had a good meeting before the game in New York and I think it helped us out because it got us focusing on what we need to do as a basketball team.
basketball great playing relaxed year
I think he had a great camp. I think it's the first year John's playing relaxed and you can tell by what he's doing out there on the basketball court.
basketball
I think I'm getting better as a basketball player.
basketball effort far guys maybe mostly obviously talent urgency win younger
It's all mostly effort when it comes to this game. Maybe some of the younger guys don't have that sense of urgency we obviously need to win basketball games. I think as far as talent we have enough to get over the hump.
basketball came good matter means regardless team win won
They're a good team, but it means more because we won the game. It didn't really matter what team came in here tonight, (we) just had to win the game. We had to get off the (streak). Regardless of who it was, we just had to win the basketball game.
basketball good leave locker room sports
As long as you leave everything out on the basketball court, you can go into the locker room and feel good about yourself and that's important..............
basket both good men
I told him before the play that if both men went to me, to go to the basket and get a good shot. Things didn't go the way we wanted tonight.
basketball defense easy good obviously playing win
Its easy to say that because we have been winning. Obviously we have been playing good enough defense to win basketball games, but we still need to get better.
basketball fingers group hard playing pointing seem win
I'm not pointing fingers at anybody, but as a group we're not playing hard enough to win basketball games. We don't seem hungry. We don't seem like we want to make it to the playoffs.
basketball care good lose
I don't really care if I play well or play bad, it's frustrating to lose the game. It doesn't do any good if we play well and lose basketball games. You still got a loss. It's like you didn't even go out there and do anything.
aggressive basketball continue helping hurting stop successful team
I just continue to play the way that made me successful in this league. Once I stop being aggressive on the basketball court, I'll be hurting my team more than helping them.
attention ball basket double drive easier entry free gets guys hit knocking pass people post running stop team throw tough
It makes it that much easier for me, especially when he gets that attention on the post and people double him, and I get the entry pass. I get people running out at me, I can drive to the basket or hit that shot. And running the pick-and-roll, when guys try to take the ball out of my hands, all I do is make that one little pass at the free throw line. And when (Webber) is knocking it down, it?s tough for a team to stop us.
figured finishing focused game gonna good home job ours playing struggling team win year
It was important. We know they were a team that's been struggling all year and we just wanted to get this win tonight. Being that we got the one on their home court, we figured they were gonna try to come in and win one on ours and we did a good job of being focused and playing the game and finishing it out.
unheard win
You play 82 games, and it's unheard of that you win every game, but this is one we should have had,
