In the first half, I was aggressive and then in a very good scoring rhythm making buckets. In the second half, they had to do something. They started digging in and forcing me to pass the ball and I'm glad to do it. |
In the second half they had to do something. They started coming at me and I had to start passing the ball. If they want to play me straight up, I'm going to try to hurt them because I know I'm hard to stop when I'm one-on-one. |
It doesn't matter what I think. It was a good lesson for ourselves -- for what we'll have to fight against the favored team. It showed us reality. It showed us that we'll only get what we give ourselves. It was good because we know we have to play a notch higher. |
It means that it's possible. It means we have a chance until we lose again. We've been trying to take it one game at a time all series long. We've got to fight like we did in Game 3. |
It was frustrating. We were turning the ball over without making them work for it. It was really an intense game for a while, and we had a very good chance to be right there. We lost it for a few minutes, and we paid for it. |
It was good the way we shared the ball tonight and made shots. |
It was just a bad game. We were unable to win when we needed to. It was frustrating the way we started game. We weren't being aggressive. And we gave them life. We let them believe they could win and the crowd carried them. We have to start playing with a better effort. |
It was just overall, a game that felt really good. I was very aware of it, I'm not going to lie. I knew that I needed the assist. |
It wasn't anything. I shot the ball (poorly) tonight. I wasn't shooting the ball well. Ruben tried to front me. Tried to front me and not allow me to get the ball. Reggie was on me. Marcus was on me. They all tried to guard me. |
It's a really bad ending that nobody wanted. |
It's all very positive. If Mike would get that, and me making All-Star team, it says how well we're doing collectively. We wouldn't be getting any individual awards or respect if collectively we weren't doing a good job. |
It's been a mad ending to the game. |
It's better. I just needed a few days of rest. A lot of things were bothering me. My knees and my foot started hurting (April 15) in Houston. It's gone away. I haven't felt it, and that's what we were looking for. |
It's great. It says that things have been going well for me and this franchise. I've been healthy for the most part and consistent. |
It's hard to overcome mentally when you are down 3-0 and they make a run. |
