among expect point teams top western win
We're spoiled. We're at a point now where we expect to win them all. We're among the top teams in the Western Conference, if not the top team. We expect to win all the time.
basketball bit good longer played playing seem stretch
We've been here a long time. We seem to tighten things up on the road. We've been experiencing a little bit of a lull. But we played good basketball for a lot longer stretch than we've been playing not-so-good basketball.
achieving continue focused goals
We're just focused on achieving our goals, and that's to continue to get better for the playoffs.
deliver depth good guys night pressure score speaks
It speaks to the depth of our team. Guys are going to have off nights. Dirk's going to deliver more often than not, but it's good that he doesn't feel pressure every night to score 25 or 30 points.
missed plays win
There were some botched plays and missed dunks. ... You have to win like that sometimes.
couple glad hit last rose shot sure
I was able to make sure we got the last shot and I rose up and hit it. I had a couple before that I thought were going down, but I'm glad I got the one that counted.
bruce himself letting skin
Dirk wasn't himself in letting Bruce Bowen kind of get under his skin a little bit. He's better than that. We're better than that.
bruise brush egos everywhere people wrong
He's going to bruise some egos and brush some people the wrong way. He has everywhere he's been.
thankful time
I'm just thankful the time has come for me to be out there.
coming continue feels few gets hopefully maybe people playing shots starting
I like playing with Damp. People make a lot about him being out of the starting lineup and coming off the bench, but I think he feels comfortable playing with me because he gets a few more shots maybe than he gets in the starting lineup. So it's been working out well. Hopefully we can continue to get better.
bruce everybody fair last letting move responsibility share taking team upset
We got a lot to be upset about. We weren't the team we were for the last 20-some games. We were stagnant, didn't move the ball, Dirk wasn't himself, letting Bruce Bowen get under his skin. He's better than that. We're better than that. So everybody is taking their fair share of responsibility for that game. We all did uncharacteristic things.
early heels kept last
We didn't want to let down after last night. We got them on their heels early and kept it up.
best cylinders good hit sign
We have yet to play our best basketball. That?s a good sign to be up 2-0 and not have hit on all cylinders yet.
matter pieces system
When you've got a system that works, it doesn't matter the pieces. But it's a lot better when you've got all the pieces working.
