It was not really a high-scoring game but we were able to withstand their runs. We rebounded good but didn't shoot well. We helped each other out more than we have been doing in the past.
Coach said it was the first time in 20 years he had seen that.
I was just trying to be more aggressive. It might have (deflated the Nets). I'm not going to say that it was the main cause of us winning the game.
Every team has runs in this league and it is how you respond to those runs (that's important). We got the stops when we needed to. They kept fighting back and we stood all the things they were coming back with.
We need every game from here on out. We're trying to put together a couple of strings, win nine out of 10, to see what we can do and make a run for the playoffs.
We needed it more. We weren't hitting too many shots, but we pulled it out in the end. I know we it gave it our all, even though our shots weren't going in.
We needed this win and we definitely thought it was a win we could get, so we just had to come out and get it.
In our eyes we should be up three to one but we're not
We were good in all aspects of the game tonight. Earlier in the year, they embarrassed us at home so we felt we owed them one and wanted to come in here tonight and get us one. We weren't going to take them lightly.
We got some stops and a lot of fast break points tonight. That was the key to the win.
We got stops when we needed to and that's the main thing. Our stops turned into transition points.
We have to take these two road wins, and take it up a notch from here.
We played hard tonight. Our top guns weren't in the game so we had to play hard. I got to the free throw line a lot. It was a good win for us.
We got the stops when we needed to and started making shots at the end.
