beat good job run
We have to run him off his shot, we can't let him beat us. He's good but they have Wade, they have Shaq. We just have to do a better job on him.
jump settling
I just wanted to be aggressive. I think I had been settling for jump shots, so I wanted to go to the hole.
aggressive lost playing
I just lost myself in the game, started playing with a real aggressive mentality.
best competing couple course help pick player tendencies trying
I'm just trying my best and getting help from my teammates. During the course of a series, you can pick up on a couple of tendencies because you play a player so many times in a row. Really, I'm just competing for as long as I can.
both everybody felt game knew throw
I'm just embarrassed and disappointed by the way we played. I felt like we were getting looks, we just couldn't throw it in the ocean. It was a big game for both teams. Everybody knew it. It was just a big letdown in pretty much all aspects.
bother game knowing realize
I realize it and I know what's going on. It used to really bother me, I used to let it get to me. At this point, I just go into every game knowing I'm not going to get any calls.
advantage hard
He thought we had an advantage and wanted to make a hard foul. It's just part of the game. Just got to take it.
crowd figured happening looking sure
I figured something was happening because the crowd was looking at the screen. But I wasn't sure what it was.
everybody line reason team whatever
It's unexplainable. Go up and down a line of this team and everybody would say the same thing. For whatever reason as a group, we weren't ready.
affect bit bothering three
It's up and down and a little bit painful, but it doesn't affect me too much. It's been bothering for 2-1/2 to three weeks. It's not a big deal.
behind excited hate redeem stuff
That's pretty much all I've been doing. You'd like to say you put it behind you, but for me it's impossible. For that to be so big a game, you hate to have it go down like that. When stuff like that happens, you feel like crap. I'm excited to get back out there and be able to redeem myself.
great support
It's a great atmosphere; kind of like a college-type atmosphere. It's great to see the way they come out and support this team.
beat charge luckily tried
I tried to beat him to the spot, take the charge and luckily enough, I got it. That was the only play I had.
extend happy
Everybody's happy we're going to extend our season. We're not going to be done on Wednesday.
