catch kept momentum played quarter third
I thought we played okay, but they stole the momentum right from the third quarter and just kept it going and we couldn't catch up to them.
brief conversation extent played sure
He just said, 'OK, Coach,' and that was the extent of it. It was a very brief conversation, and he was agreeable. I'm sure he's going to be professional. He's always played well under these circumstances. He's always responded the right way on the floor.
adversity against calls competing continued deal defense distracted good learn missed paint physical plague played poor second
They just outplayed us in the second half. They were more physical than us in the paint and the same things continued to plague us - poor third-quarter performance, not competing in the paint, and being distracted by what's going on at the other end of the court. We have to learn to deal with adversity and not be distracted by missed calls or good defense being played against us.
jersey played stepped
I thought this was a very well played game. New Jersey stepped up and executed at the right times.

anywhere calling damage either heck hope hoping played player plays sidelines takes uniform
Either he's going to be in uniform doing some damage or he's going to be on the sidelines calling out our plays like he did when we played them in the preseason, ... I'm hoping that he's not anywhere to be seen. He's a heck of a player and I hope that he takes another day off.
bit changing game hand lost momentum played shots
Give them credit. I thought they played well. They made shots with a hand in their face. There was a part in the game when the momentum was changing a little bit and we lost our composure.
ball carrying coming defining flying game physical played road starting throughout together trip
Starting with that six-game road trip, that was our defining moment. Right now we're coming through with flying colors. We went 3-3 on that trip but it's how we've played. We played physical and together and we were in every ball game and we're carrying that throughout the end of the season.
bad best good miss played proud shots small
I thought we had a good look. It was too bad it didn't go in. We did the best we could with Yao with the small lineup we played with. We made Yao miss some shots and I was proud of our team.
answer dropping high level played
I thought Brendan played better in November; he's dropping off a little bit. We need Brendan to come back and play at a high level for us. I just don't have an answer why there is some slippage there.
crucial matured next night played pleasant surprise year
It's night and day from one year to the next year. He's so very crucial to our success. . . . It was a pleasant surprise how much he matured and how well he played for us.
bulls dribble game good job knew plan run stay team though type wings
Even though we were up 20 at halftime, we knew the Bulls would make a run at us. That is the type of team they are. They are a disciplined, well-coached team. Our game plan was to get up in the wings and stay with the dribble penetration, and we did a good job with that.
cared defensive direction guys huge minutes says shoot starting takes tonight win
It says a lot about the direction we're going in, with the new starting lineup a huge, huge defensive emphasis. Some guys didn't play as many minutes tonight as normal, but we really cared about doing the things that it takes to win and not about what's going to shoot up in the stat sheet.

If the lunatics can be controlled I would have every reason to come back and look at F1.
