Those two guys really stepped up tonight. Harrison is really tough to keep out of the low post. He's a strong guy. Granger really hit some big shots at key times, and he really seemed confident in his shots. |
Those were back-breakers. We had fought back, and to have Gary hit those were real neck-breakers. |
We can still make a big run. We can steal games because the All-Star break is coming up. We just have to keep chipping away and fighting for that eighth spot, and I really think we can make it. |
We can win games at home. But we seem to lose focus on the road. |
We can't let losing stop us from believing. We're a work in progress. |
We felt we really beat them down tonight. |
We had a lot of careless mistakes but I think that our defensive pressure was not there the whole game. We gave them easy baskets on our turnovers and that's one thing our coaches have been impressing on us all year. |
We have kind of a tough-love relationship. It's the first time I've ever had anyone [a coach] take care of me like he has. In the heat of a game, emotions might fly, but I respect him tremendously. He knows what's inside me, and he just wants to bring it out. |
We held Sacramento to nine points in the third quarter. |
We just came out slow. We came out with the energy that we needed in the second half, but we didn't come out like we were ready to play tonight. We can't do that if we want to win. |
We just didn't give up. We were down 29, even though that's a big deficit, you know you never throw in the towel. We made sure we gave a better effort in the second half and try and come back and win the game. |
We knew they were undersized down low, so we wanted to take advantage of that. Tony played really big for us and was a big key in the win. |
We really needed a win tonight, especially on the road. My mind-set tonight was to really focus in on bearing down and getting a win. I wanted to do everything in my will to get that win tonight. |
We were all embarrassed after that game, and I know exactly how Toronto feels. |
We'll figure this out. We'll make it work in the future. |
