The second quarter is what killed us. Hopefully we'll get to play these guys in the playoffs because I think we match up well with them. |
There are some solid teams that we've beaten -- and there's some teams that we should have beaten and didn't. It's just frustrating. I think we play better against teams like this and we get more geared up for them. I think they bring out the best in us. |
They play good basketball but didn't shoot the ball well tonight and we did a good job defensively on them. They had good energy but the shots weren't going down for them. I don't know if it was because Ray Allen was out but they normally shoot the ball better than that. |
They struggle shooting the three-pointers, so you kind of pack it in a little bit. |
We did a good job defensively. We didn't turn the ball over much. It was really more of a team win. |
We didn't play soft. There were a lot of fouls called. Some that we weren't used to and some that I haven't seen in my whole life. |
We haven't been in the playoffs since 1997. |
We play such good defense, and they struggled all series shooting the ball. I thought they came out with fire in the third quarter. Then we fought back and put them in the ground. They gave up. |
We played them good, we had them going. We've got to keep the pressure on, punish them. We didn't do that. I think it was a little bit of jitters, maybe. |
We've have chemistry that we've been building with him not playing, so we're trying to fit him in. People can't be so critical of him. I mean, let him play three or five games. Corey's a great player, but he hasn't played in three months, so you've got to give him some time to get back into the swing of things. |
