chance game win
It hurts. You play this game for a reason: to get to the playoffs, and give yourself a chance to win a championship. If you're out of the playoffs, you can't win a championship.
gotta home winning
It's tough, but we've gotta go home and live with it. That's part of the business. It's getting tougher, it's getting steeper. But if we go on a winning streak, we're there.
means playing
He was playing a little more aggressive. If that means a chip, I guess.
expect kinds
You can't expect those kinds of things to happen. I was kind of stunned.
fight game great left move physical seem took
It didn't seem like they had too much fight left in them. It was a physical game and I thought we took it to them. It was a great win, now we move on.
jump open shot taking
I was just getting some open shots. I was just taking the jump shot when I had it.
close coming free game jump last missed open overtime shots throws
Coming off last night's game, we really didn't want to go into an overtime game on a back-to-back. We had our chances. We missed free throws and didn't close out on some shooters. You can't give open jump shots coming down the stretch.
build business continue good hopefully losing monkey needed push tough winning
It's good to get the monkey off our back; we just needed to get a win. Losing is tough in this business today. Winning is great, and now hopefully we can continue to build on this and try to push for the playoffs.
body good missed
I got a good shot. I should have squared my body up more, but I just missed it.
break fine line rough trying year
It's up to a year that you don't feel 100 percent. There's a fine line of doing too much and trying not to rough it up so that it doesn't break again.
games year
It's a big one. The most important games all year for us.
care move three win
It's three in a row. I don't care how you win, or if it's ugly, we got the win and we move on.
effort helped looked needed
Obviously, it would have helped to have Andrei tonight, there's no question. Defensively, he would have helped us out tremendously. But with or without Andrei, we didn't give the effort that we needed to tonight. They looked like they wanted it, and it just didn't look like we did.
fourth game start
This is a big loss. This is a winnable game ? and we start off the game kind of poorly, and we didn't get it done in the fourth quarter.
