The crowd is right on you and it's always packed. The crowd is very in tune with the game. And their team is very good. That's the No. 1 factor.

He ran that timeout period before the overtime. And guess who hits the 3 right out of the gate?

He's in a struggle, so we're in a struggle.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. I don't profess to know a lot but I think that's the way to do it.

I didn't think our energy level was very good defensively. We weren't very active. We just weren't alert defensively. In the second half I think we were more alert, and they missed some shots. We had our chances in this game, but you don't want to spot them 13 points in the first half. This is a team we can beat, especially on our home court.

They have to do other things, get the ball to the side players and not turn it over.

They weren't bad talent-wise, they just didn't have the habits you have to have to win, ... It's a mental thing. I had to get them to look at the glass as half full.

It took those guys a while. They believed they were good.

Everybody's got to do a little better and pick it up so we can get over the hump. I've been telling people and telling the guys that this team has been playing well, but not well enough to win. I told them if you play well and keep doing what you're doing, you'll break through. They're a better team than their record shows.

It's something he feels he didn't get and he feels it needs to happen. He has the idea and vision to do it.
