looked mistakes
When I looked at the mistakes I made in the playoffs, it was more because I was indecisive. This year, I'll be more deliberate, more assertive.
blow came eyes home looked minute trying
We came out trying to play our game, but they came out really focused. They had that look in their eyes like it was going to be their night. ... For a minute there, it looked like they were going to blow us out on our home court.
challenged couple guys looked open run shots
Avery challenged me at halftime. He told me to get aggressive. Guys looked for me, I got a couple of open shots and Dirk put us on his back in that run in the third.
blow credit energy gave looked needed seen stayed
For a minute, it looked like they were going to blow us out. We've seen that from them before. But we stayed with it, and give credit to our fans, who gave us energy when we needed it.
What they're going to do, we don't know and we really don't care. It's all about us.
good sign stopped
We stopped them when we had to. That's the sign of a good team.

(Memphis) had that look in their eyes like it was going to be their night. But we started to feed off the crowd, and the momentum started to shift. ... I was just playing the game as it came to me. I was just hitting some shots.

Next time, I won't give him a two-second head start.

We were definitely hot coming in. We're in the top three in the league for a reason. We thought they'd come out with a fight, which they did. But we finally got into it in the third.

Mentally, we are a very tough team right now. We don't let injuries or anything set us back. I credit (coach Avery Johnson ) for that, keeping us strong mentally. We're always prepared.

Our game plan was to win the points in the paint and we did that. Utah's a good team. They're physical, they're aggressive, but we stood our ground tonight.
broke call came defense exactly good halftime quarter shoot start talking third whatever
We came into halftime talking about getting out to a good start in the third quarter and whatever we had to do to make them call the first timeout. That's exactly what happened. Devin broke down the defense and I did what I do, just shoot the ball.

We've had great practices for late-game situations. We're very confident down the stretch.

We are not going to hang our head. We're going to come out with a lot of energy (Friday vs. Dallas).
