capable great kenny key knew knocked means players stepped thomas
Even with all of the players that they have lost, they still have a great team. Kenny Thomas stepped it up and knocked down the key shots. We knew that they have capable players, and by no means did we take them for granted.
family front fun thinking
I'm not thinking about points, I'm thinking about wins. It's about roles, and that's my role. I can say it's a lot more fun in front of my family and friends.
bad terms total
In terms of total micro-organisms in the floodwaters this is about as bad as it can get.
agent free great ready sit stay summer talk thinking until
There's going to be a lot of things to think about. But I'm not really ready for all that yet. It'd be great to stay in one place my whole career, but in the back of every player's mind, you have to be thinking about what it'd be like to be a free agent one time. Then again, you never know what can happen. I really shouldn't talk too much about it until I really sit down and think about it. I just know this is going to be a big summer for me.

court definitely huge impact playoffs taking team year
He's taking a team that didn't make the playoffs a year ago and definitely has made a huge impact on them. Obviously, when he's on the court with them they're pretty much unbeatable. When he's not on the court they're not the same.
adjust aggressive came instead second settling shots style taking
I came out more aggressive in the second half, not settling for three-point shots and instead taking it to the basket, ... That?s my style ?- being able to adjust during the game.

We just couldn't match their intensity in the second half.
execute liked shots
We just didn't execute down the stretch. I thought we got the shots we wanted. I liked our effort.
build consistency feels finish finishing games good monkey trying win won year
We wanted to finish the year off right. We know we've been so close, and for us to get a win like this feels good - especially finishing 2005 off with a win. But we've won back-to-back games once this year, so I don't think we're going to get too high. I mean, we're still trying to build some consistency as a team. Hopefully, we got the monkey off our back.
forward next
We've got something to look forward to next year.

Making the big shot wouldn't feel so good if missing it didn't feel so awful
