It takes us up a notch -- I mean, they won nine straight games. They're an extremely talented team, but there's no way that either one of us could come in here and say, 'Yeah, we're supposed to win.' Their stats are better than ours, but we were at home. |
It was a game we felt we had to have, in regards to our playoff seeding. |
It was a game we felt we had to have. We built up a big lead, and then we let them back in the ball game. We started taking shortcuts in our execution. We had too many turnovers. |
It was a great trip. Obviously, we are a bit disappointed, we would have liked to play Detroit a bit better than what we did. Hopefully we can go home and all start getting healthy and make a stretch run for the playoffs. |
It was a great two-game sweep. We got two tremendous defensive efforts from our guys. |
It was finally time to put them out in front of an audience and make them work, ... It's nice. Once you get a few years under your belt, you're able to do stuff like that. |
It wasn't a masterpiece. We gave up 22 offensive rebounds. But I was happy with getting the win at home. |
It's a big blow for us. |
It's a great accomplishment, a great feeling, to be able to accomplish everything you set out to do. Everything we've done has basically followed the script. I'm very pleased. |
It's a hell of a two-game sweep. We got two tremendous defensive efforts from our guys. I could not be more impressed at how our guys responded. |
It's a little bit dangerous for us. I don't think it's an advantage for us. |
It's a long flight for us, it's about as far as we can go on a back-to-back, and you're getting there late, and the altitude. That's probably the toughest place. |
It's a tremendous accomplishment. It's been a long time since this has happened. For me, it's the vision I've had. |
It's certainly a step back. We took them lightly. How that can be? We know what it is to play without (key) players. They lose two of their starters from last night and basically they had their guys step up. |
It's funny, I've been here for four years and I'm still trying to figure things out with this team. I think I have a pretty good feel for the game, but trying to fit in with these guys. ... As long as we've been here together, we don't know each other as well as you think we would think. |
