We came out at halftime totally casual. Just kind of winging the ball all over the place, acting as though they were going to give us the game. We've done this so many times now. The only word I can think of is unacceptable. |
We came out well tonight. Unfortunately, they came out better in the third quarter. We looked a little bit dazed and confused, which has been a habitual thing for us this season. When you let them get going, they're tough to handle. |
We can trace our problems to basically one thing. Our home record is below par. |
We definitely turned (the intensity) up a notch. As a result, we stole one. |
We did a great job of collapsing and a great job on the glass. We had a big advantage on the boards and Tyson was a big part of that, especially on the offensive end. We were all scrappy tonight. |
We did a lot of good things tonight with the exception of four or five minutes with our defense breaking down. Other than that we had 40 plus minutes of pretty solid defense. We moved the ball well. We got a lot of open looks. |
We did a much better job in the second half of getting aggressive. We were a little fatigued or distracted in the first half, there's no doubt. We felt at halftime it was one of our poorer halves in quite a while. |
We did not play well enough to win. We had way to many breakdowns, mentally and physically. |
We did not play well enough to win. We had way too many breakdowns, mentally and physically. We had a lot of trouble tonight from beginning to end maintaining our focus, and we paid for it. |
We did what we had to do. We came out and played with energy, I thought we had good ball movement. Our shot selection was excellent, and I think they were a little bit off. |
We did what we had to do. We came out and we had a lot of energy. |
We did what we had to do. We had to win this game. We played better, but they didn't play like they played in Miami. |
We did what we had to do. We needed both of these games and we got it done. They won at home and we won at home. We know going into the series we have to win one in their building assuming you win at home. This makes it a series right now. We'll go down there and do our best. |
We did what we had to do. We were able to get off to a better start. Our guys were confident and relaxed, yet focused from the start. We had good performances across the board. |
We didn't handle it very well the last time we played them. We had a hard time reacting to it. |
