capable defense flow games good indicative playing second winning
We know we're capable of playing good defense and actually winning games with our defense. I think Game 1 was indicative of that and (in) Game 2, we were able to get in a good flow offensively, as well as put good defense on them in the second half.
against eight glad golden great matter playoffs prove seed state team time tough warriors
We're still a great team in a great position. We still have a lot that we want to prove once the playoffs get here, no matter what seed we are or who we're playing. But I'm kind of glad the Golden State Warriors aren't one of the eight (playoff teams). We've had a tough time against them this year.

We're just focused on achieving our goals, and that's to continue to get better for the playoffs.

against build concern difficult eight glad golden matter next playoffs seed state teams time tough warriors
We still have a lot to prove. Once the playoffs get here, it doesn't matter what seed we are or who we are playing. I am glad that the Golden State Warriors are not one of the eight teams going because we have had a tough time against them this year. They are a difficult team to play. They have nothing to lose. They have something to build on for next year. Our only concern is us.

We don't have to depend on Dirk in every game. We have guys on this team who can do a lot of things.

We don't have to deal with staying on the West Coast for an extra day or traveling overnight to get home. That's big for us, I think.

We were just not in the game. We were totally knocked on our heels in the first half.

You have to teach him the Bill Russell rule and tap it to yourself so we can get on the break.

This would really cap off the trip to come back home and win. It's almost like a six-game trip.
basketball bit good longer played playing seem stretch
We've been here a long time. We seem to tighten things up on the road. We've been experiencing a little bit of a lull. But we played good basketball for a lot longer stretch than we've been playing not-so-good basketball.
