brad execute feed guys kept plays tried
We did what we wanted to do. You've got to execute down the stretch, you've got to get stops. We couldn't get a stop, but we kept scoring. We tried to put it in Brad and Mike's hands, let them make plays and the other guys feed off of them.
brad constant guys injuries mike needed shot
He made big shot after big shot, and we needed it. With the injuries and everything else, Mike and Brad have to be the two guys that are constant for us.
again brad good last mike needed terrific three tonight win
Mike was really terrific again tonight and Brad was good tonight. We really, really needed this win after the last three on the road.
brad mike playing struggle year
I've said all year if we don't have Mike and Brad playing well we're going to struggle.
brad good happens mike offense team
Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. When that happens with the team we have (at the moment), it's hard.
anybody brad decent everybody francisco good happens high mike needed offense team
Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. Francisco had numbers, but our starters, I don't know if anybody had a decent game. ... We needed everybody to play well and play at a high level, and they didn't do it. When that happens with the team we have today, it's hard.
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.
guys last missed open played seven shots ton
I thought out guys played hard. We missed ton of shots in the last seven minutes, open shots.
looked matter message possible send
I think the Spurs are going to play the same no matter who's out there. When I looked at the tape, I thought it's possible they'll send a message and (upgrade) it to a flagrant foul, but I had no idea they would suspend him.
last liked night saw shoot shot
I saw Brent shoot that shot so many times last night, I can't tell you. And I always liked Brent before.
game guys win
Our guys did everything but win the game.
hands helping nice seeing teammates
We're challenging shots, getting hands on passes, helping teammates and seeing what the other team is doing. It's nice to see the activity.
chance stops
We executed offensively, and we got the stops we needed. Now we have a chance to even it up on Sunday.
attack court dangerous second spread stop
We couldn't stop them in the second half. Once they got going that's who they are. They spread the court and attack you. They are a dangerous team.
