ball pass playing struggled turned
We struggled playing the game. We didn't pass the ball very well. We turned it over. And playing on the road, you can't turn it over like we turned it over.
ball opposite shot sums turned
We shot poorly, turned the ball over. We didn't play well. Twenty-eight turnovers and 13 assists? That's usually opposite for us. That sums it up for me. Can't say much more than that.
attention build catch control destiny energy golden guys hopefully past paying seven state teams trying
We still control our own destiny and teams still have to catch us. In the past seven games, we haven't been paying attention to detail. Guys were trying to do it themselves. We wanted to come out with a different energy and we showed it tonight. Hopefully we can build off this, but we'll find out at Golden State (on Friday).
last mentally
We're just mentally different than we were two years ago or even last season.

We definitely caught a break after they had such a hard game last night. It wasn't pretty, but I'll take it.

We're just trying to get one of those eight (playoff) spots, we don't care where it is. It's going to be a fight right down to the end.

We're just trying to make sure somebody's on him all the time.

We're going to have to win some games on the road if we're going to get in the playoffs.

We got to win that game. Simple as that.

We knew they were going to come out and attack us. It was the first game here. The crowd was into it.

We knew they were going to make a run. They always do here.
leave left supposed
We left him when we weren't supposed to leave him. We got off him when we weren't supposed to get off him. The things we were not going to do, we did.
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.
