We have our backs against the wall.

I think it's a sense of urgency. When we have our backs to the wall and we need to win a game, I think we really focus in. We've got to find a way to have that sense of urgency, whether it's a seven-game winning streak or a seven-game losing streak, every time we step on the floor if we want to make the playoffs this year.

We've got to get it together, as we have our backs against the wall.

And they have their backs against the wall. They may be on the verge of extinction.

They really bond well together. They had their backs up against the wall, and they did real well. I am proud to be their coach.
