chance stops
We executed offensively, and we got the stops we needed. Now we have a chance to even it up on Sunday.
bad chance gave good knew mike
Mike had no chance in Denver. They gave him that group, and everyone knew it'd be a bad group, and then they let him go. . . . You get a good group, and look what Mike's done.
chance fourth road win
I always say that on the road you want to give yourself a chance to win in the fourth quarter.
chance control force great guard league playing ronnie shots stick trying work
Ronnie hasn't been trying to force the issue, he's playing under control. We know he can make shots and guard people, and he has a great work ethic. I think he has a great chance to stick in this league for a long time.
came chance controlled couple game gave guys hard last missed offensive ourselves played point rattled shots stretch
They played hard down the stretch to make it a two point game and gave ourselves a chance to win. We missed shots and then Nash came back in and controlled the last couple minutes. Those other guys were getting rattled and he came back in and controlled the offensive end.
chance cost forced game guys impatient issue minutes second stop three tied win
In the second half, we didn't stop them. I have to give my guys credit. We had the chance to put it away. When it was tied with three minutes to go in the game, we didn't do what you have to do to win a game like this. We were impatient and we forced the issue and it cost us the game.
chance fourth quarter row three turned
You've got to give yourself a chance in the fourth quarter. I don't know what we were down in the fourth quarter and we turned it over three times in a row and that was a killer. You can't do that. It was just unforced turnovers.
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.
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.
double guys played playing seven
We played seven and all seven had double figures. We've been playing better and better offensively. We're getting more used to each other and our young guys are playing better.
