against easy miami stuff swept whatever
Being swept by Miami was kind of an eye-opener. It shouldn't have been as easy for him to do what he did, especially without Shaq out there. But there he was, doing whatever he wanted to against us. That kind of stuff can't happen.
against average
I don't know what his points-per-game average against us is, but it's really up there.
against character far fighting finding knew lost
We knew if we lost this game, our back was really going to be against the wall. It was another show of character as far as fighting and finding a way to get a win.
act against ask average best games league opposite past played poorly ridiculous teams
It's pretty much ridiculous to me because we had games against teams like that in past and we didn't find a way to win. If you ask me, it's the opposite way around. We play well against the best teams in the league and played poorly against the average teams. We just need to get our act together.
against chasing everybody fifth game great happen hopefully milwaukee needs opportunity playoff step tonight
It is very disappointing. Tonight was a great opportunity to win. Unfortunately it didn't happen that way. We got a big game against Milwaukee on Wednesday. They're chasing us for that fifth spot, so it will be like a playoff game. Everybody needs to step up their game, and hopefully we can do something there.
against atmosphere best intensity league played playing scoring teams tough type
Defensively, we've got to make it tough on them. They're one of the best scoring teams in the league and they're playing well. We need the same type of intensity and atmosphere we had when we played against Detroit.
against brings game games plays
He always brings his 'A' game against us. He plays well every night, but he has had some spectacular games against the Wizards.
close eventually far fed finding losing money mouth pull saying time win
There's only so many times you can say, 'This is the time to get things rolling. With me, I'm pretty much fed up as far as saying that. Eventually we have to pull it together. It's really no more excuses, the way we've been playing, not finding a way to win games, losing close games. It's pretty much put your money where your mouth is and find a way to do it.
cheated lazy
Offensively, it wasn't there. We cheated the plays. We cheated our cuts. We weren't aggressive. We were lazy with the ball.
good job staying
Offensively, I don't know what we were doing. They did a good job of staying poised.
everybody knows possible understand
Everybody knows Gilbert. We don't understand how it's possible (for him to be omitted). But it happened.
benefit everybody help knowing knows lights possible understand voted whatever
Everybody knows Gilbert. My thing is whatever lights your fire, use it to help you and benefit your team. We don't understand how it's possible (for him to be omitted), but it happened. You don't know who voted for him and who didn't. Knowing Gil, it doesn't matter.
chance enjoy felt last losing man playoffs saying seen took tough
I've been around a while and it's been frustrating lately. It's been tough to get up and enjoy the season. Normally, that's how you feel as an organization that doesn't have any chance of making the playoffs and we've kind of seen those signs. I'm not saying that we felt that way but losing those last three, man it took a lot out of this team.
chance crunch games left smart team
Sometimes you do have a lot of minutes, but it's crunch time. We know when we're out there we give our team a chance to win, but we have to be smart about it. We know we have 19 or 20 games left and have to play smart.
