aggressive defense easy forcing passing played pushing result stuff
We started off pushing the ball. Got a lot of easy shots, got in the passing lane, played aggressive defense and as a result of that, we were getting a lot of easy stuff and forcing them to do things that they didn't want to do.
everybody goes guys hurt step stepping
We know guys are banged up and hurt, and then Brevin goes down. When that happens, other guys have to step up and make a play. Right now everybody is stepping up to the challenge.
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.
feeding finish games great kept needed paint teammates win
This was one of those games that we needed to win to try to get over the hump. I got it going, and my teammates kept feeding me the ball, and I was able to put it in the basket. I got great positioning in the paint all game and I was able to finish at the rim.
controlled focus settled
We let them back in the game. Once we settled down and got out focus back we controlled the game.
