advantage ball defense great hands last played playing team tired winning
We wanted to keep the ball out of his hands as much as possible. Through this whole winning streak, we've been playing great team defense. The last two times we played the Lakers, we didn't play great defense and let them take advantage of it. We got tired of it.
good kept matter streak win
We're going to take the win no matter what. It was a good win for us and it kept the streak alive.
asks clicking coach continue defense defensive great grow learn level offense percent win
I'd say we are at about 80 percent right now. I still think there's a level or two that we can still reach, especially on the defensive end. Our offense has already been clicking and doing a great job. We showed that during the win (13-game winning) streak. Our defense is improved. We just have to continue to grow and learn each other and do what coach asks us to do.
winning long
As long as we keep winning, I'm happy.

great people thanks whatever
I think we're a great team. Whatever people are saying, thanks for the compliment.
community country home needs
My community needs me a lot more than the country right now. I'm going home to do that for the kids.
coach communication defensive great scheme team wants
That comes with that communication and the defensive scheme we've been working on all year. It's just been great team defense. If we communicate and do the things coach wants us to do, we win.
bring coming drive energy needed
With Damp coming in, he's bring a lot more energy. That's what we needed from him. I think that's going to get him his drive back.
execute fourth hurt
We didn't execute well. (Davis and Richardson) really hurt us in the fourth quarter. We just didn't communicate.
attention basketball great hopefully ourselves pay playing playoffs trying
I don't even pay attention to that any more. We're just going into the playoffs trying to get ourselves better. We want to keep playing great basketball like we've been doing and hopefully end up playing in June.
games good guys hardest matter swing tough
This was a tough game. These are the hardest games when you come off a break. We're getting back into the swing of things. Guys went out and had a good vacation, but it's always good to get a win no matter how we get it.
doubted great playing
We're going to be doubted when we come back like we've been doubted the whole year. We just have to know when we come back, we have to keep playing great basketball.
bad feeling good gym taste tomorrow
It wouldn't have been a good feeling because we wouldn't be able to get into the gym tomorrow and get that bad taste out of our mouths.
