appreciate definitely healthy hope soon
I think we definitely appreciate the win, especially being short-handed. I think we appreciate it more. I hope we can get healthy as soon as possible.
compete gone guard hopefully sets
We've gone over all their stuff, and hopefully we'll be able to guard their sets a lot better. But we just need to compete a lot harder.
both career court ends hope matter obviously playing point tough
Obviously (he's) a tough assignment, but at this point in my career I would hope to be playing on both ends of the court no matter who I am guarding.
hopes playing time turn week
The time is now. We have to do it now, or in a week or two we could be out of it and not playing for anything. If we have any hopes of being in the playoffs, we have to turn it around.
ahead care far ground hopefully positive thinking wish
It's frustrating. We wish we would have made up more ground earlier, but it is what it is. We can't look back, just look ahead and hopefully take care of business. We're still thinking positive We know we're not out of this by any means. We just have to make it happen. So far we haven't been able to do that.
bit bumps confident few hit hope rest treatment
I've got a few bumps and bruises, but I'm confident that with treatment and a little bit of rest, I'll be able to go. It's one of those things where when you get warmed up and get some treatment, you can go. I just hope I don't get hit there again.
bit plays stop
I thought we got a little bit stagnant, and they were able to make plays when they had to. We couldn't stop them when it counted.
basically bullied paint
(James) was able to get in the paint and basically do what we wanted. He just kind of bullied us.
goal highest seed
Our goal is to be the highest seed that we can. We have a lot to play for.
finish goal highest improve motivation move season seed shot
Our goal is to be the highest seed that we can. That is our motivation to move up. We have a shot to finish .500 for the season and improve our seeding. We have a lot to play for.
bench games gave helped played
Our bench gave us a big lift, which really helped with all the games we've played recently.
efforts normally second third
Our close-outs have been bad. We haven't been making the second and third efforts that we normally make.
bottom court definitely gotten home point rookie
It hasn't gotten to the point where it was like my rookie year, where we were getting booed every game, but it's definitely something we have to correct. It's just something we haven't done. We have to play a lot better on the home court -- that's the bottom line.
blow chance continue gotta
I think it can be done. We gotta believe. But we won't have a chance if continue to blow opportunities like this one.
