attack driving guys offensive points positive scoring though
Our positive was Rashad scoring 18 points but on the other end you have guys driving by you going to the basket. I thought though his offensive attack and feel was good.
fifty paint playing points
Fifty points in the paint - that's unforgivable. You're not really playing very much defense.
average easily few jordan points quite tougher
Defensively, it's tougher to guard. Jordan could easily average quite a few more points now.
exploited giving means paint playing points tonight
That is unforgivable. Giving up 50 points in the paint means you're not playing much defense. That's what was most disappointing. If you get 100 points, that's enough to win. Tonight everyone was a culprit. They exploited all of us.
defense paint playing points
That is unforgivable. If you give 50 points in the paint to a team, you are not playing very much defense and that is the most disappointing thing of all.
effort good hit ray shots stretch tough until
I thought we had a good effort until about a two-minute stretch when Ray (Allen) just went crazy. He hit some tough shots and some tough threes.
lost quicker
I thought we lost a lot of juice. I thought they were quicker than us tonight.
close games group point regain took turning
I thought that was a turning point in our season, (Wells') shot, that group of close games we had. I think it took a little starch out of us, and we were never able to regain (momentum).
belief broke spirit together
I think all those together broke our spirit and our belief in each other.
happened lose ways
It happened so quick. We come up with different ways to lose it.

Jason hit some huge shots. I don't know who could have guarded him on a couple of those shots he made.
national saw team
I saw he got into some scraps with the national team and I like that, as long as you use it in the right way.
fought guys lose played
Those guys fought hard, played hard. To lose like that ...
together
We have to put together 48 minutes. That's been our story all year.
