It's the only way you can approach it. I can't deal with what went on with him and another coach. |
It's the type of game where we have to be mentally into it the whole game because if we play that team, that's what it's going to take. |
Kenny came up huge in the end. He was the guy that they were leaving open. |
Kenny came up huge in the end. He was the guy they were leaving open and he hit that one shot with a little bit of luck, then the second one was dead center and he hit the free throws. |
Kevin is coming out aggressive and taking the shots that are there. We see it every day, now he's just transferring it from practice to the games. |
Mike had no chance in Denver. They gave him that group, and everyone knew it'd be a bad group, and then they let him go. . . . You get a good group, and look what Mike's done. |
Mike was really terrific again tonight and Brad was good tonight. We really, really needed this win after the last three on the road. |
Now we are going to the playoffs on a positive note and we'll see what happens tomorrow night and prepare for whoever we play. |
Obviously it was a real disappointing loss. We did very poorly offensively and in the second quarter we just couldn't play well as a team, Washington pretty much controlled the tempo. |

Oh, yeah. I thought it was lucky when I saw it live, but then I watched the videotape and it bounced twice on the rim and off the top of the board. I don't know if Brent works on the kind of spin he put on that shot, but it went in, and that's one of the reasons they're a great team. |
Our energy level tonight was up. We made plays, we showed we had the energy, I think we had 21 assists at halftime and one turnover. Our offense was efficient tonight. We haven't been playing well these last seven games and our offense was the thing hurting us the most. Guys were trying to do everything on their own and we need to get back to trusting our teammates and passing the ball. We weren't paying much attention to detail in these last seven games, but we were better tonight. |
Our guys did everything but win the game. |
Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. Francisco had numbers, but our starters, I don't know if anybody had a decent game. ... We needed everybody to play well and play at a high level, and they didn't do it. When that happens with the team we have today, it's hard. |
