found free open shots slip
We had open looks. We've got to make our open shots and make our free throws. Somehow, we found a way to let it slip away.
amongst coaches everybody group hold night players together
We got together as a group -- just a little airing out -- and let everybody say what they had to say. So everybody had a night to think about it. You kind of have these things with the coaches at times, and sometimes players can hold back and not say what they really want to say. But once you're amongst the guys, you can get everything out.
control entire finish game knock year
We just didn't knock them down. This is a game we were in control of pretty much the entire time, and we just didn't finish it off. It's kind of been the story all year long.
effort good losing maintain period streak tonight
When you're on an eight-game losing streak and can get one, you feel really good about yourself. Now we just to maintain the effort that we had tonight and do it for a long period of time.
definitely good team veteran
When you see that, especially with a veteran team like that, definitely it was good for us.
focus games lose win
When we were up 2-0, we were pretty excited. We thought we just had to win two games. Those two games never came. You kind of lose focus when you're up 2-0.
accept defense expect mediocre ourselves playing record
For us to be .500 and not playing defense the way we need to play, mediocre is the right word. We should not accept being .500 right now. We expect more of ourselves and we should have a better record than we have.
capable constantly court defensive guys helping main starts talking team whatever
For whatever reason, a lot of guys are tentative when it comes to talking out on the court and helping one another. For us to be the defensive team that we need to be, and we're capable of becoming, it all starts with communication. That's our main thing. When we're out there, we need to constantly be talking to one another.
drove time waiting
But they were there, ... Every time I drove they were there, waiting for me.
ad bringing change losing wait
I don't know, we'll just have to wait and see. Obviously, it would be a help, it would give us another big body. But we're just not doing the little things right now. That's why we're losing games. So who's to say that bringing AD back is going to change all that.
help number perform pride
We take pride by being called upon. When we get our number called, we have to go out there and perform and help out the starters.
best instinct killer matter prove team whatever
He just has a killer instinct. No matter who's guarding him and whatever team he's playing, he's going out there to prove to the world that he's the best player.
trust
If only we had an answer. Trust me, we don't know.
caught easily loose test thinks
This was a big test for us. Everyone thinks you're going to win, and you can easily get caught up into that and play a loose game. It was important for us to come out focused.
