lose miss rhythm
You want to keep your rhythm. I feel if I miss a game, I kind of lose my rhythm a little bit, so I try not to let that happen.
creative
Anything that's more creative is going to be more fun.
bit early executing fourth games gotten great hitting lazy quarter season second shots slow terms tonight
Early in games we've gotten off to slow starts, but tonight we got off to a great start. In the second quarter we kind of got lazy a little bit and they capitalized on it. But the fourth quarter has been our quarter early in the season in terms of hitting our shots and executing our plays, and that's something that we did tonight.
coach hard year
It's not hard for me. It's only Year 4 for me, but this is coach No. 3.
calls couple fueled
There were a couple of questionable calls there. That kind of fueled the whole thing.
aspect focus good loose mental might people playoffs prepared season stay
The thing about it is, we?re loose all season long and then when the playoffs come, we?re even more loose. People might not think that?s a good thing, but it?s a good thing for us. We try to stay loose. We still know the focus part and what that mental aspect is, but we like to be loose and get prepared in the way that we have to.
giving lift second unit
That second unit has been great. We aren't giving them a lift at all.
guy shots
That's the guy you've got to watch. He's incredible. I can't even think of all the big shots he's made.
great team
They've got a new team with new players. It's going to take them a while to all get on the same page, but they've still got a great team.
ball means trying
They went to a zone, and that means they are trying to get the ball out of Rip's (Hamilton) hands, so we have to make shots.
ball battle defensive detroit knows san
Everyone knows that when San Antonio and Detroit play, it's going to be a battle on the defensive end. The thing that we wanted to do is really concentrate on rebounding the ball and not let them get second-chance opportunities.
basket drove easier everybody kicked knows rip slow taking
We really got off to a slow start, but once we got going, we started taking better shots. We drove to the basket a little bit, penetrated and kicked and made some plays. Everybody knows when Rip and Chauncey are making shots, it makes it easier for the other players.
easy floor natural points presents scores stuff
What he presents on the floor is unusual. He scores from so many different areas, points come easy to him; rebounds, points, all that stuff comes so easily, so natural to him. It's like no other.
defense happening offensive stops
We know what our capabilities are: to have our defense get some stops and try to get started on our offensive game, which wasn't happening for us.
