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.
couple guarded hit huge jason shots
Jason hit some huge shots. I don't know who could have guarded him on a couple of those shots he made.
fact good last looks prepared rhythm shots
We got good looks last night, so it wasn't the fact we weren't getting shots. I think we're better prepared (after Thursday's practice) for the rhythm shots now than we were yesterday.
jack shots
We got the shots we wanted and the spacing we wanted. We didn't jack up threes.
quality shots takes walk
I'd like to see if he can get up 20 shots. You can't just walk through that and get that many shots up, quality shots. To get 20 quality shots, it takes work.
ball catalyst defensive knocking leader shots
He's also been the catalyst I think for those guys. Getting the ball into them, being the quarterback, being the defensive guy, knocking down big shots and being the leader of that team. I think he's been huge.
aggressive attack everyday kevin knock shots tonight until wants
I see the same Kevin. Kevin wants to win; he wants to attack. I see him everyday and I see the same passion. I thought tonight that they were double-teaming him and I think that's kind of what got him out of whack. Until we knock down shots and be aggressive and attack the rim, he's going to see that.
against anytime came half jump playoff second settling shots team
Anytime you have a playoff team on the ropes and (lose), it's disappointing. We came out in the second half and started settling for jump shots and you can't do that against a team like New Jersey.
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.
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 ...
