We let three slip away. That's over. That's behind us. We know this is a new year. New goals. New attitudes.
We knew they were going to make a run, we weren't going to be able to keep a (big) lead on them. They made a run, they made a big run in the third, but we kept our composure.
We knew they were going to make a run but we kept our composure and finished off the game. It was a great game out there.
We ran pretty well (Monday night). I don't think we ran as well as we wanted to. But we ran pretty well.
My team needed me out there to get some things done. At halftime I just told them it's time for me to wake up and just go out there and win the game.
I knew that we were down by 14 points and my team needed me out there. Halftime, I told them that it was time for me to wake up and go out there and win the game.
Now we don't have to put too much pressure on ourselves. It was good to come on the road and get this win. I don't think anybody predicted where we'd be where we are right now in three years. This is one of the stages we've been trying to get to. Now that we're here, we want to move forward and win a playoff series.
I don't think anybody thought we'd be where we are now, after three years. This is one of the stages we've been trying to get to. Now that we're here, we want to move forward and win a playoff series.
I let the team down. We still had a chance to win the game, so of course I think I let the team down. Not just the team, but the whole organization.
If we win playing ugly ball, we'll take it.
I can't worry that we didn't get him. It was rumors all along.
I couldn't sleep last night due to the pain. I tried to go out there and play tonight, but by the third quarter it started tightening up on me.
I wanted to play. (But) it's nothing I can be upset about.
After this road trip, I think it will say a lot about us and where we stand.
