arenas excited great last win
What really makes me excited is that it (ticks) Gilbert Arenas off because that's what he said the last time. It was a great win for us.
gave hold instead lead passive played score three took trying
We gave away so many opportunities with the turnovers. They didn't score on them, but they took us out of scoring. I thought we played so passive in all three of the overtimes once we got the lead. We were trying to hold on to the lead instead of being aggressive.
burn four guys halftime kept open quarter reason shots soft third though three won
We just kept scratching. I told our guys at halftime that I thought our first half was as soft defensively as we'd been all year. And we started our third quarter out the same way. They got three or four open shots and I had to burn two timeouts but then I thought our bench, even though they were outscored in a big way, was the reason we won the game.
bottom four game games
We just have to win. Bottom line, every game is a must-win for us, when you look at the percentages, being down four games with 13 to play.
extremely guys heard time
You heard their voices. Our young guys were extremely verbal. It's the first time we heard their voices.
backward guys hopefully step stuff taken team unless win
We're going to win the division, ... If we don't, we've taken a step backward unless our young guys have done something where you can see hope. But I'm going to tell you this, and hopefully it won't be often: That young team stuff is not going to be used as a crutch. OK, we're young. So what?
answer anyone beat next team white
You beat a team once, they're going to come after you the next night. We had no answer for anyone in a white jersey.
broken spirit
We had our spirit broken and never got back into the game.
benefit beyond chance consistent gets gives happens obvious playing situations
Beyond the obvious benefit of playing time, it gives us the chance to see where he's at. It will be interesting to see what happens when he gets the consistent minutes. I want to try and fit him into as many situations as possible.
classy gets human team tony tough
Tony Dungy is as classy a human being as you will ever know. This is a tough one. I don't know how a team gets through that, to be honest.
desperate loose obviously played playing team
We were playing a team that was obviously playing desperate and you could see that play in them. We're loose and we played aggressive.
beat guys
No, our guys know about Miami. Of all the things that can beat us (tonight), that shouldn't be one of them.
aggressor attacked game heels obviously points
Obviously to end the game the way we did with 10 points wasn't in the plans. They attacked and I thought they were the aggressor and I thought, when we were attacked, we went back on our heels a little bit.
against game home hope lose obviously playing
Obviously a home game against Atlanta, you hope you can win. We're not playing well right now. It's frustrating to lose this game.
