I was hoping to get the guys a couple of days of class. |
I'm happy for him, and it's an indication of the success that he's had, but there are a lot more points that he needs to score if we're going to have a big year. |
I've got a great appreciation for the focus they've brought. We didn't start off as well as we would've liked in the league. For us to be in the championship game after 0-3 ... it's a tremendous credit for all the guys on this club. |
If we play Friday, then everything works out OK. If we have to play Thursday, we'll be put at a huge disadvantage. |
In all honesty, I think Jared is an acquired taste. You have to watch him for a long period of time to appreciate what he does. There is nothing he does that is going to wow you. He's not tremendous at anything, but he's very, very good at all things. |
In order to come back against a team like this you need energy. We had no bounce. |
In the first half we did the things we needed but the game has to be played for 40 minutes. That separation they created in the second half was the difference in the ballgame. We made a couple of mistakes. I didn't think they did anything differently, they just continued to do what they wanted to do. |
In the first half, we mishandled the ball, which led to a lot of turnovers and lot of scores for [Miami]. Then in the second half, we only had three or four [turnovers]. I think our improved ball handling made a difference in the ball game. |
It doesn't make a lot of sense to worry about that now. We're not going to get any extra consideration because of it. |
It had nothing to do with the game. It was a well-played game. It wasn't even a distraction for either team. Maybe the fans and everybody else got excited. |
It increases our chances of succeeding. To play four straight days against this level of competition and expect to win, I think, is impossible. To do it three straight days is tough. |
It was a well-played game. I think it was pretty entertaining. Unfortunately, they were the last ones standing. |
It was not pretty, but nobody was giving in. |
It was really incidental. It wasn't even a distraction for either team. Maybe the fans and everyone else got excited, but for us, for the most part, it really didn't have any impact on the game at all. |
It was the recognition in our zone offense. It comes in the flow of the game. It's not like we want to come down and fire up 3s. |
