We put ourselves in a big hole in the second quarter. We gave them a cushion and we were playing uphill from that point. We got it down to within five points and we had a few shots that went in and out and they came down and hit the 3.

It started when we gave up 36 points in the second quarter. We were playing uphill from that point. We got it down to five, and I thought I had a good look on a 3 that went in-and-out, and they came down and hit a 3 and the rest was academic.

He didn't get too many calls. He has to just keep taking it to the hole and maybe he'll get some calls. Maybe after the All-Star break, once they realize he's an All-Star.

That was the difference in the game. They gave the starters a cushion at the start of the fourth quarter. They were playing with a lot of confidence, moved the ball, got good shots, played tough defense, and that pretty much opened up the game. So the starters got back in and put it away.

The 3s at the start of the second half put us in a big hole. We made some sloppy passes and they capitalized.

This is a tremendous opportunity to be named head coach of the Brooklyn Nets, and it's a role I have been studying for over the course of my playing days.
