QUOTES/NOTES/TOPICS:
ON FIRING UP THE TEAM:
“I knew we needed a boost. We were just kind of flat. We had no energy. We let those guys get wherever they wanted to go. I just wanted to get us fired up and once the foul happened, they started talking. It was a hard foul, but it wasn’t dirty, he didn’t jump or anything. I caught him on the floor, I hit him with a shoulder. Once they started talking they gave me an in to get us fired up. I used that and we got going.”
ON WHETHER CJ MCCOLLUM SAID ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR:
“Yes. He started talking about the foul. I have a lot of respect for CJ. The guy has been good in this league for a long time. That is my type of situation. I enjoy that. I appreciate him. It is good.”
ON WHETHER HE FELT THAT THIS GAME WAS A PLAYOFF SITUATION:
“It did and as it should. There are two teams fighting for positioning they could possibly be in a tie-breaker situation, you have to take care of home court. We gave one away last game. Me in particular and we have to do something to get that back. We can’t lose two in a row at home, especially at this time of the year, understanding our circumstances, so it definitely felt like a playoff game as it should have.”
ON WHETHER THIS WAS A TACTIC HE USES TO GET THE TEAM FIRED UP:
“It was perfect. It was perfectly executed. We looked dead, those first 18 minutes of the game. We had to find some energy somewhere and I knew it just wasn’t going to come, especially losing the game like we lost the last game. That can carry over and I felt like it did. I knew we had to do something and do it fast before the game got out of control. They hit a couple of shots there at the end of the half to increase their lead, but it didn’t feel real. It felt like they hit a couple. We turned the ball over a couple of times, they hit a couple shots in transition but right before that CJ had a wide open layup and he missed it. BI (Brandon Ingram) had one of his shots and he missed it, so you could just feel that they were just out of sorts, yet we turned the ball over a couple times and gave them some stuff in transition and they boosted their lead but coming into the half, I knew we had them right where we needed to have them. We came out a minute and sixteen seconds in on an 8-0 run. That was huge and it turned the game for us.”
ON BOB MYERS:
“If Bob comes and tells me something, that’s bible to me… (Myers told him) Listen. Alright, you proved your point. You may have been right but if you stay that way, guys are going to follow you. If you turn it around right now and get back in the huddle, guys will follow that... Y'all don't always get to see Bob's worth other than putting the team together. But he's so important to everything that we do.”
