advantage awkward ball brand feeding guy hard leave took
They started feeding the ball back to Brand and he took advantage of the mismatches he had. It was hard for us to leave the guy we were guarding to double-team Brand. It put us in an awkward position.

You're just flowing. I was just feeling it. Every thing was clicking. It was a great night for me. I was just glad I was able to help our team end our slide.

That showed the progress we made as a team, we could close out the game. It was fun.

elite expect game mean minutes problem teams understanding win
We have a problem understanding that just because we are up 12 or 15 with 3 minutes to go, that doesn't mean the game is over. We just can't do this if we expect to win and be one of the elite teams in the league.
controlled focus settled
We let them back in the game. Once we settled down and got out focus back we controlled the game.

I couldn't straighten my leg or bend it. It felt like I bumped knees at first, but the pain got more and more intense. Then I didn't try to get up. I don't really know what the diagnosis is, but I'm getting ready to go over and get some tests done.

There's confidence in both guys. Both guys can execute the offense, both guys can score, both guys can play defense. So it really doesn't matter to us.
care causing executing missing taking
We are doing all the things you need to do to be successful, causing turnovers, taking care of the ball, rebounding, executing our offence. But the only thing missing is wins. It's very frustrating.
came game good half played quickly shots
I thought we played pretty good in some areas. We had a letdown just before the half when it was a three-point game and quickly they got it to a 15-point lead. I think it came down to they made the shots and we didn't.

I'm a survivor, ... I'm going to find a home and job here and make it. I may go back and visit New Orleans someday. But Houston is my home now.
