bad focus maybe teams
Maybe teams do focus on us a little more. But we just didn't play well offensively. It was just a bad night.
coming extend focused half lead letting opposed second
We just focused on coming out in the second half and not letting up. We wanted to try extend our lead as opposed to just exchanging baskets.
focused move trying
We were really focused tonight. Even after the game, we were all businesslike. We did what we set out to do, and now we're just trying to move forward.
achieving continue focused goals
We're just focused on achieving our goals, and that's to continue to get better for the playoffs.
best center focus nba team
He's the best center in the NBA on one end now. The team has to focus on him more than any center in the NBA, even Shaq.
capable defensive identity mark offensive question team winning
Our identity as an offensive team is set. As a defensive team, we're still a question mark to the masses. But we know we're capable of winning that way.
road satisfied series somewhere team tying
We can't be satisfied with just tying up the series with this win. We're going to probably see this team somewhere down the road in the playoffs.
create energy expect force good guys happen job quite step talented veteran wants younger
Our veteran guys have to step up. Our younger guys, we can't expect them to be there yet. As talented and as good as they are, we can't expect them to create their energy and their enthusiasm. Sometimes you've got to force it out of them and I think that's what Avery wants to see happen and that's what we've just got to do. Quite frankly, we haven't been doing as good a job as we need to be.
win
We've been doing it all season. It's become who we are. We feel we can win those kind of games.
improving stronger
The only thing we need to be working on right now is getting stronger and improving our seeding for the playoffs.
heels knocked totally
We were just not in the game. We were totally knocked on our heels in the first half.
depend guys team
We don't have to depend on Dirk in every game. We have guys on this team who can do a lot of things.
coast deal extra overnight staying traveling west
We don't have to deal with staying on the West Coast for an extra day or traveling overnight to get home. That's big for us, I think.
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.
