I was pleased with the way we responded tonight. That's a real fine team. Our defense down the stretch was a significant factor in the game.

In all my years of coaching, I've never seen a team pass like this. They don't care who scores. Really. Everyone makes the extra pass.

(Gunn) is definitely one of the Bay Area's best. He does it all -- dribble, shoot and defend. He makes shots when we need them most.

I tried something different ? I didn't look at the last two there at the end. There are a lot of worries, because sometimes it just doesn't happen and you're doing things you rely on. You know, we just always make free throws, and typically in a game like that, we're gonna win by 10 or 12 points because we're gonna make the one-on-one's down the stretch.

We talked about defending better and we came out and did it.

I was pretty pleased with the way we responded to being down.
