We are still positive. We're still right there. Of course we are not playing at the level we're capable of and winning games we are capable of winning. However, it's not the end of the world and it's not the end of the season. We can always change things around. |
We didn't execute our game plan. They had other guys scoring big numbers. Eddie Jones scored big. Shane Battier scored big. Bobby Jackson came in and had a big night. |
We just didn't execute our game plan. We had a game plan to slow Pau down and we did a good job on him, but they had other guys come up big. |
We just have to continue to play hard like we've been doing and dig ourselves out of this hole. We just need to learn how to finish up games. |
We know if we are beat, somebody's going to be back there. In the past, it wasn't like that. If you pressured up on somebody and you got beat, you were getting dunked on. This year, we're helping each other out. |
We missed easy shots we're very capable of making. That was a lack of focus. We lost the game because we didn't execute toward the end. ... We're not satisfied with people talking about us. We want to make the playoffs. |
We play good defensively for 14 seconds, and that other 10 seconds, we slip. The shot clock comes down, we don't get a rebound or we don't get help. Just little things we're not doing that we need to get back to if we want to be a good team and we want to win games. |
We said (earlier in the week) we're playing our last five games, and we want to win. If we play the next three like we played the last two, we're going to win. |
We tried to get back into it and play some good defense. Troy hit a couple of shots. We tried to fight back into it but we dug ourselves into a hole by 20 (points) and it was hard to come back from that. |
We want to win a lot of games. There are some tough teams coming in here and we're going to some tough places, but we can still win a lot of games. |
We were down by two but I thought we were down by three. I didn't know, I was just trying to get a shot up. When it went in I just thought we were going to overtime, then realized that we had won. It was a shocker. I was excited about it. |
We were due to win a game in Cleveland. Guys really pulled together. |
We were penetrating and kicking the ball out. We got our 3-pointers because of good ball rotation. We have a lot of guys who can shot. |
We were thin. Guys have bad games, it was kind of hard to have somebody to come in and lift the team up. |
We're learning how to play when the other team knows you're good. You have to find ways to win games. It's all part of the process, but we have to find ways. That's part of the adjustment when you become a good team. |
