needed san turned worst
Sometimes it's like we are our own worst enemy. We have stretches where we don't shoot. We don't defend. When San Antonio turned up their defense, we needed to turn up ours.
job nice playing team win
They got the job done, and that's the nice thing about our team now. They're playing, they get down, and they don't think they're down. They're playing to win and that's what it's all about.
guys hat matter playing sign team though tip uniform
No matter who we play or who is in uniform for us, they have competed. I tip my hat to my guys because they never quit. That's the sign of a team that is still hungry, even though we're not playing for anything.
great playing plays
He's been playing unbelievably. He's made plays where at first I am saying, 'No, no, no,' then it's a great play.
beat came far fourth quarters third ways
I think we were embarrassed in that first half. They outplayed us in every way. They beat us in all ways that you could. We came out and competed in the third and fourth quarters but were just too far down.
ball neither nights played shot team
Neither team played much defense. They shot the ball really well, and we were red-hot as well, so those nights sometimes happen.
guy somewhat
I'm somewhat surprised, but I'm not the guy making the decisions.
bad camp everybody guys head kids none problems ready team work
That's terrible. We don't have any problems with our young guys that are out of the ordinary. None of our guys are bad kids and everybody on this team comes to work every day ready to go. . . . Our camp is just fine. As the head coach, I've got everything under control.
ball came club continue gotta guys move next says until
It says a lot for our ball club that our guys came out and competed until the end. You just gotta move on and continue and play the next one.
bad guy hung watched
The guy never even hung on the rim. I went back and watched it on the tape. It was a bad call.
ball beat four help hump next teams three threw
I've got to help them get over the hump somehow. We're right there ... and we threw the ball away three of the next four possessions. You're not going to beat teams like that.
beautiful both ends watch
It's beautiful to watch those two play. They play the right way at both ends of the floor.
continue happens limit nice team
The sky's the limit for him because he's untapped. He has a lot to say about what happens on this team and it's nice to see him get a triple-double. I think that's something he can continue to do.
games
(This game) kind of typified our season. We've been in games like this all year.
