I rather it happen now than Game 7 in the Finals or an important game. I am not trying to downgrade this game as not important but those type of things happen. We have counted on Vince in the two years that he has been here and he has room for error.
The big thing was playing defense. That's the blueprint of this team, if we're going to have any success is getting stops. We did that at the right time.
You've got to give them credit for coming back. We've got a lot of respect for them.
Hopefully, it will be a wake-up call for us. The big thing is for to continue to get better and play for 48 minutes. (The winning streak) is great but it can also be dangerous if you become complacent and feel you can turn it on when you want.
Winning can get boring. Hopefully we learned that tonight, giving up 37 points in that fourth quarter.
We have a long ways to go. We didn't play any defense. Again, it's no gray area with us. If we don't play any defense, we're not going to win. Chalk this one under no defense.
Unless we were the Ninja Mutant Ninja Turtles, there was no mutiny.
A lot of late nights in the gym, a lot of early mornings, especially when your friends are going out, you're going to the gym, those are the sacrifices that you have to make if you want to be an NBA basketball player.
We're going to turn this team around 360 degrees.
Growing up, Magic Johnson was my idol. He was a good example. He could always pass the ball extremely well and get his teammates involved.
I love the competition no matter at what age.
