beat brag chip early given last night played playoff shoulder sit year
We know it's going to be a playoff atmosphere. We only played them once, and we can't sit here and brag and have a chip on our shoulder like, 'We put them out last year and we beat them early this year.' Because you can be beat on any given night in this league.
game last moral overall trying victory wins
We got the moral victory with the two wins this year. But they got the overall by getting us in Game 7 last year. We're just trying to get back to there, and get back what's ours.
chip last regular season stuff summer wait waiting
We started the season with that chip from last year. We had to wait all summer and then wait through this long regular season. All of that other stuff was just in the way. This, the playoffs, is what we've been waiting for.
last respect rug swept
We still don't get the respect we deserve. It's all right, though. Hey, it's cool. For the last so-and-so years, we've been under the rug. They swept us under the rug and the last two years we went to the Finals.
couple ourselves stops turn
We told ourselves to turn it up and get a couple of stops to take over the game.
beat disrespect game knew mouths san taste
With us, we didn't like the taste we had in our mouths all summer. No disrespect to San Antonio, but we knew we could have beat them in Game 7.
rally stand teammates thinking
We were already up big, so I'm thinking that's why he did it, to get his teammates to stand up and rally off of that. It didn't work.
