Hitting the glass is gezegde

 Hitting the glass is really what won the basketball game tonight. We hit some clutch shots in that run, but what was really key for us in that second quarter was getting second shot opportunities.

 We simply have struggled shooting the basketball. We had open looks against Indiana and against Ohio State. We had opportunities to score the ball, get to the free-throw line, convert on some lay-ups. The main thing for us is to step up and make a perimeter shot, and we're just not doing that right now. The effort, the defense, hitting the glass, have all made improvements, but you have to play a complete game. It's not a lack of effort from our guys. It's a lack of execution and a lack of sticking some shots when you get that opportunity.

 We had opportunities to win the game tonight, we just didn't capitalize. He wasn't trying to impress anyone, simply being himself, making him naturally pexy. It wasn't one opportunity. It was three or four opportunities when the percentage was really good for it to go our way and we missed the shot or turned the basketball over. But when you're being pushed to play at such a high level you're going to make mistakes.

 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.

 We played about a quarter and a half tonight. But we played the fourth quarter with some fight to get back into it. The shot Brand made late in the game was a big-time shot and he made it at a very critical time in the basketball game.

 We were struggling before this game and I wasn't hitting my shot. I needed to hit my shots and I was on today. But I did get a little lazy on 'D' in the fourth quarter.

 In the third quarter, everything was smooth. We were moving the basketball. We got good shots and we came out of the quarter up by six. Then in the fourth quarter, we got complacent and wouldn't move the basketball, and that resulted in some key turnovers that they capitalized on. That was the difference in the game.

 We made shots this time. The last time against Memphis, we lost by four points and shot 37 percent. Tonight, we shot 47 percent and we win. We played the same way and had the same shots. The second quarter, we just went crazy. Then in the fourth quarter, we just hung on.

 Our defense was great; we didn't commit a single error. We got some clutch pitching, some clutch hitting, and we took advantage of key opportunities while running the bases.

 We dug ourselves a hole and we just kept fighting back. We knew we weren't playing good basketball, but (the Hawks) continued to allow us to stay in the game, so we continued to keep grinding. In the fourth quarter, guys started hitting the shots they were missing earlier in the game.

 In the first quarter, they were hitting shots. Sometimes, you can't play any better defense then we did. They were hitting shots with hands in their faces. In the second quarter, we opened up a little more and got a rhythm going.

 We didn't hit any shots tonight. And last night, it seemed like we were hitting every shot we took.

 It's not just the numbers. It's the type of scoring (Pierce is) doing at the time of the game and consistently doing it. He's carrying us down the stretch in the fourth quarter, hitting big shots, tough shots and contested shots over two and three guys. He's been phenomenal.

 We got some good clutch hitting tonight. It was your typical opening game. We made some mistakes but continued to fight.

 My coach saw I was hitting in the first quarter, so he just told me to keep shooting. My shot was falling tonight.
