When you knock down a few of them, you get confident. Once you see another opportunity, you just take it.
They've got so many weapons at each position. Last game, Daniel Gibson hit us for 37 points and the inside guys were probably upset with their performance. We knew the big guys would probably have something to prove in this game, and we were right.

They have so many weapons at each position. We knew (Aldridge and Tucker) were unpleasant with their performance the last game. They had something to prove. They came out and played their tails off.
