game loosen
It was a little stiff, but it started to loosen up as the game went on.
guys healthy
Right now, we're not healthy. We're wounded. We got to get healthy and get our guys back.
behind knew open score shots teammates
When you see one of your teammates go out like that, especially an All-Star player, we are behind him all the way. When he was ejected, I knew I would have to be a lot more aggressive. I was going to have to give myself shots and get my teammates open shots. I knew I was going to have to score a lot.
defending everybody help
Everybody can play defense. We're just not defending right now. We need to communicate on defense, help each other.
again excited fans good
I'm excited again and I think the fans are too. I don't know if you can put that on Earl, but it's good to have him.
building chemistry good heading looking next outside playing quit season shows though together toward
This is a very big win. Even though it's at the end of the season and we are on the outside looking in, we are still playing together and it shows you there is no quit in this team. I think we are building good chemistry heading toward next season.

The ball was supposed to go to me or Ray, but things broke down and Luke had to take the best shot he could get.

A lot could change tomorrow. We'll just have to wait and see.
knew open step teammates
I knew I was going to have to be a lot more aggressive. If not getting myself shots, but getting my teammates open shots. I knew I had to step up big.
difference enjoy season wants
I don't think any of us wants the season to end right now. Where am I going on vacation? I had no idea. I haven't even thought of that. I think we enjoy being together, and that's the difference between then and now.
hanging honestly last leave night team
I honestly thought about it (not playing) last night and all day today, but I didn't want to leave my team hanging like that. I just wanted to give some kind of effort, to let them know I'm still with them.
defensive took
You can tell they're a better defensive team. They took me out. I couldn't get anything rolling.
contract deal last looking pay type willing
The type of contract I'm looking for - I feel like this is my last really big deal - I don't know if they'll be willing to pay that.
feeling felt
It just felt like we were going through the motions, there wasn't any feeling for the game.
