charlotte couple defensive gives guys hard involved knew plays team turn whenever
It started on the defensive end. I got a couple of stops. I was able to get guys involved and, after that we were able to get a comfortable lead. A team like Charlotte always plays hard and never gives up. Whenever we would make a run, we knew we had to turn it up defensively.
guys home step thinking younger
It's a lot of minutes. We want the younger guys to step up. But when I'm out there, I'm not really thinking about it. When I go home at night, that's when I really feel it. I've got to get my rest.

We played well, we played well enough to win the game. Down the stretch we allowed them to get second chance shots. We allowed them to hit three pointers and get back into the game. Against a team like that who's so dangerous offensively we've got to step up and make plays, and on the offensive end we did. On the defensive end we broke down and second chance points and three pointers and rebounds killed us.
