executing good less looks
It's more or less us not executing well and not getting good looks at the basket, something we could have did better.
attitude bull either excuse figure hand instead played separated stay together understand western win
I think we should have played better. There's no excuse why things got out of hand like that. We have to figure out if we want to win and come together and do something instead of being the laughingstock of the Western Conference. I think we're separated right now. Either we're in or we're out. If you in, let's roll. If you out, then stay out. For us not to have that attitude is bull (manure) to me, and I don't understand it.
drive
I still feel like I have a lot to prove, ... My drive isn't going away because of money. I don't know if anything could take my drive away.
exactly hits later missed seconds shots
We had a turnover, missed shots and Wally hits a 3. I don't know exactly how it went, but we were right there and then 60 seconds later we weren't.
commitment defensive numbers performed proof team worst
The proof is in the numbers. The numbers don't lie. I wouldn't say we're the worst defensive team of all time, but who would? We haven't performed well defensively and that's something we need to get better at. We've got to get stops. We've got to make a commitment to defense.
arguably best create face game hand hit hope players tough
Tracy's arguably one of the best perimeter players in the game right now. As long as he's on the floor, he's a threat. He understands how to create space. You just have to hope to get a hand in his face and miss. And tonight, he hit some tough shots.
match plenty tough understand
We just didn't match their intensity, and you can't do that in this league. You know that it's going to be tough on a back-to-back, but we have to be better than that. We've had plenty of back-to-back and understand how tough they are.
played sure
He'll tell you no, but I'm sure he (wanted it). That's only natural. He played great.
decided defend instead laughing point stock together western
I don't know what point it was, but we decided not to defend any more. At some point we have to decide if we want to come together and do something, instead of being the laughing stock of Western Conference.
five
Do that, ... and in five years, you'll get another one.
controlled counter game shots top tough tried
They pretty much controlled the game from top to bottom. For the most part, they made us take tough shots tonight. Everything we tried to do defensively, they had a counter for it. We couldn't get anything going.
against help rather
The more help the better because I don't want to get in there against him. I will if I have to, but I'd rather not.
four lead points thirteen
Thirteen points is a lot to come back from, but we got their lead down to two points. That's four possessions we can't give away.
behind boo entire games money move pay possible soon speak team
They had every right to boo us. You pay your money and see something like that, I'd boo, too. All I can say and I think I pretty much speak for the entire team on this one is this is one of those games that you put behind you as soon as possible and move on.
