A lot of teams like to put a bigger player on me. A lot of times, I backed him off but didn't hit the shot. I've got to hit the shots. |
All night long, I just had a bad rhythm. In the first half, I was going too fast and got a couple of turnovers. In the second half, I kind of shut it down a little bit. |
Before the break, Pop wasn't happy with our offensive rebounding. Now, (Mohammed) is dominating that category. |
Definitely difficult to lose him. He was coming back very well. He was starting to play very well. He was playing good basketball so it is hard to lose him again. |
Definitely. It was tough in overtime. Maybe we ran out of gas. But we should've won the game before that. We had it. |
Ever since I've been with the Spurs, we've gone up a lot of times 2-0, only to lose two straight. |
Every time we play Houston, we have a hard time scoring. Whenever you make the outside shot, it opens things up for us. |
Everyone's been coming in this week wanting to look fresh for the game. With Dudley, basketball and football mean everything to this community. We take it very seriously. |
Finley is definitely stepping up and playing great basketball. He's just feeling more comfortable with the team. |
First half, we kind of played terrible defence, gave them wide-open shots. The second half, we matched their energy. Every time they tried to penetrate, everyone was in good position. |
He always thinks that if everything is good at home, you'll play better on the court. |
He got me good. He got me good. I just thought he didn't need to do that because I was right under the basket and I was fouled already and he just gave the extra elbow. I didn't appreciate that. But he knows that he was wrong. I just wanted to make sure I told him. |
He looked good at the line to me. |
He looks a lot faster. |
He said it very plain, very clear. He said, 'We need to repeat.' We're just about the only team that's won a championship lately that did not repeat. |
