I lost another good friend and teammate, ... Last year, Steve left and this year it was Mike's turn. |
I really don't know if I got the last one up in time or not. |
I think that kind of sucks. I really do. If you have the second-best record, you should have the second seed. That's how I feel about it, but there's nothing you can do about it. |
I thought they mixed it up with a zone a little bit in the second half. If you're not making shots against it, then it's effective. I also thought we relaxed a bit, and you can't do that against good teams. They started to make shots all of a sudden from anywhere. We just let them stick around. |
I thought we just slept right through [the game]. They were aggressive and came out on fire, and we just couldn't get anything going. |
I thought we relaxed a little bit and you can't do that against good teams. We failed to keep executing on offense and the next thing you know it turns out to be a tough ballgame. It feels tough right now, almost just like a loss, but at least it's a win. |
I took a glance at the clock, and I only saw a couple of seconds and I still had three balls there. So all I did was try to hoist them up there as quick as I could. I don't really know if I got the last one up in time or not. All I did was just try to get rid of it as quick as I could. Whatever I did got me to the second round. |
I tried to stay aggressive. That's what the team wants me to do. I tried to make things happen during that stretch. |
I want to take that one back at the end of regulation that I missed. I kind of rushed that one when the score was tied. |
I wanted to play. It?s frustrating, ... If we would have won, it would have been 2-2 and the whole thing would have been wide open. |
I was frustrated with my performance all night long. I had a couple great looks, but nothing seemed to fall and I couldn't really get involved in the game but my team stood behind me 100 percent. |
I'm fine. I just haven't been able to find my rhythm. I've got to be more in an attack mode. |
I'm very happy that Holger has been released — that's very important to me, especially in regard to preparing for the European championships. I will contact Holger as soon as possible, then we will see what happens. |
I've always said when he's active, clogging the paint defensively, offensively keeping balls alive for us, giving us second-chance opportunities, we're a different team. |
I've been struggling with my shot. Milwaukee was terrible, San Antonio did a really good job against me. We all know -- with Josh out, with Jason (Terry) out now, with (Jerry Stackhouse) not seeing any action all season long -- I've got to stay aggressive. I've got to make plays for myself and my teammates. |
