Bruce Bowen Team Quotations

Whenever you allow a team like Dallas to shoot more than 50 percent, things aren't good for you.

I think Ben did. The first part of the game, Ben gets a steal, the dunk. That's not how you want to start off a game away from home. That just energizes their team. That picks their team up and makes them more heightened and more hyper.

You have to understand that all we did is what we were supposed to do tonight. They are going to be a better team when they come out the next time, and we have to be ready for that.

They scored 14 points in the last 39 seconds. It didn't end on a high note and that's our attitude about this game right now. It puts a damper on tonight's game. We didn't accomplish what we wanted to as a team because of what happened at the end of the game.

They're rolling right now. They're not the same team we saw earlier, and they have nothing to lose. They're playing really good basketball right now, and you have to give them credit for what they did. But we should have given a better effort tonight.
