ball brad game hit left mistake moved overtime patience plenty standing three took
The patience at the end of the game there when Brad hit the three was terrific. We had plenty of time, we moved the ball around and they made a mistake and left Brad standing there. Then in the overtime we took control, especially when Odom fouled out.
attention detail games guys hurting last offense passing paying playing seven teammates trusting trying
We haven't been playing well these last seven games and our offense was the thing hurting us the most. Guys were trying to do everything on their own and we need to get back to trusting our teammates and passing the ball. We weren't paying much attention to detail in these last seven games, but we were better tonight.
ball calmed forced half halftime second simple talked trying
We were trying to make the spectacular play, and all we talked about at halftime was trying to make the simple play. I thought the first half we really forced a lot of things, and during the second half, we calmed down the ball pretty well.
team
We were a team without a personality. With Ron, we have one.
