QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
• Steve Kerr postgame on the good start: “our guys were ready to roll. We’d lost three straight to Phoenix… execution… key to the game… hold them off when they made their run.”
• On a complete game and the Suns Q3 run: “very physical… took us out of our offense… more aggressive team tends to have the ball go in the hoop… control the game from there (in Q4).”
• On Klay being extra fired up: “been in such a great place now… several months… two early Phoenix losses, he really struggled, showed a lot of frustration… this is a division rival… we knew how big a game it was.”
• On taking the momentum on the road: “Defensive stats at home are really good… on the road we’re one of the worst so it has to start with the defense… the game has to connect… good offensive possessions… but it has to start with a defensive mindset.”
• On taking the momentum on the road: “Never felt the last two game we were (not locked in)… those other fifteen, twenty points that are out there… boxing out, turning it over, live ball turnovers… understanding personnel… defending without fouling… together… (not) don’t blame me… a mistake be one player is a team mistake.”
• On Poole: “Jordan made a three (mid-fourth)… driving to the hole… dynamic… really adds a dimension to our offense… frustrating game for him, he had some turnovers, some defensive errors but he stayed with it.”
• On scoring 20 off the bench and if this is a good example: “he had a few careless passes… gotta make sure he checks those… biggest thing for Jordan and really for all our guys is just go out and fight and compete… poised and executing.”
• On Klay starting against Booker: “We didn’t really have much choice tonight. It wasn’t anything motivational… Wiggs isn’t here. We’ve got Donte guarding Chris Paul… Klay is feeling much better about his overall health… energy, competitiveness and poise.., defense has picked up.”
• On Steph saying to get the sixth seed: “No, I don’t even bring up standings… it’s all process… what do we have to do to get better… win on the road… details.”
• On the importance of this win: “Every game now is critical… against teams that we’re battling for position for… they all count the same… keep winning.”
• On going box-and-1 on Booker: “Phoenix is a team that’s well-coached, well-drilled… the way (CP) orchestrates their offense… give them some different looks… not let them come down and see the same thing.”
