I always start pretty strong. When I do struggle, it tends to be in the second half.

We've got to come out the same way we come out in the second half, ... We've got to start the game with some sense of urgency. Once teams start hitting shots and get a read on us, it's gonna put our backs against the wall. That's something we need to be concerned about.

I really wanted to come out in the second half and show that we had more than we had showed in the first half. We came out and started hitting our shots and our confidence just grew from there.

I'm not worried about the first three weeks, I'm worried about the second half of this when I start to lose my mind and everything gets really bad,

We were a little stale at the start of the second half and got playing a little too much long ball. The middle was open all day, but once you get up through the middle, you still have to get the ball outside.

This is a resilient team. We got down, but we got off to a great start (in the second half) and we knew what we wanted to do against these guys, so it was a matter of us executing it. Once we slowed it down a little bit we were able to manage the game. We took control.
