When you win two straight games you kind of forget about all the negative stuff.

We knew how bad we needed to win these games. Someone had to fill (Rodgers') shoes in terms of on-ball defense and shooting threes. We did a good job of filling the hole.

That wasn't the reason. We just needed to win two games.

Everyone is into it, the energy is good. These were two big wins. When you win two straight games, everyone kind of forgets all the negative stuff.

I won't forget it. That's the first time I got the chance to do something like that, and I messed up. But I'll have more chances.

Coach was saying to make sure that we play hard because he's going to get us in and out of there, and it's important for us to play hard because it gets the other big guys tired physically and mentally. So far its worked for us... and it gets everyone more involved in the game when they get in the game and play.
