00:00 How would you describe Steph's performance tonight given the stakes?
00:09 STEVE KERR: I mean, the guy's 37 years old. It's incredible, 52 points with people draped all over him all game long. The conditioning, the skill, the audacity, the belief. It's, just incredible to watch Steph at work. I mean, I can't believe he's still still doing this at this age, but he's put the work in and he's still got it.
00:37 How much do you think that week off he just had maybe boosted him a little bit?
00:41 I think it helped and I think two rounds of golf on this road trip helped. Yeah, I'm only half-joking. But he — yeah, the week off, was helpful for him. I think he looks recharged, rejuvenated and he just — I think last time he was here, he didn't make a field goal. I guarantee you that was on his mind. We lost by 50 or something and we know how they like to guard him. They've done a great job on him. They've done a great job on us the first three games of the year. We averaged, I think, 19 turnovers against them and tonight, only 11. And I feel like there was a really concerted effort to execute and get organized and stay poised. And for the most part, I loved the way we played, throughout. We had a couple of bad spells, but it was really a solid effort. It's an amazing game. I mean, both teams played at a really high level. They made 18 threes. Ja was unstoppable. So, great game and we were fortunate to come out on top, but we made big plays down the stretch to make it happen.
01:56 Did it feel like a playoff game?
01:57 I did. It felt like one and, obviously, the implications were huge. Now they've gotta beat us by two games here over the last seven to catch us, so that's helpful for us and we're, obviously, fighting it out with Minnesota, with the Clippers. And you never know what happens with anybody, so you gotta handle your own business.
02:23 You mentioned the last time you were here, how long ago does that feel? How long ago does that feel?
02:28 Completely different team. Jimmy saved our season. The trade saved our season. Everybody knows that, but you watch what he did tonight, 12-for-12 from the line, steph goes off the floor, we're running everything through him. Just a big-time defender, big-time two-way player. And, Jimmy has made the rest of the pieces fit, Moses, BP, Gui, Quinten. It's just — the roster makes sense. We've got guys who are competitive and tough and smart and…

06:58 TUOMAS IISALO: Well, he got a lot of looks and different type of looks, so with a player that caliber who we've done actually a tremendous job throughout the season in all of the games, he was able to still find ways to get open. And once he gets into that zone, it's very difficult to get him. I mean, we're talking about the best shooter and certainly also the best movement shooter of all-time. And then he was in that zone and after that it becomes extremely hard to stop him and I know our guys were giving everything they had and then you look at, for example, in the second half, there's no longer scripted situations where that is happening, where you can put two guys maybe on him. But he's so good at getting rid of the ball, relocating and there's not a — you can't relax for even for a half a second because he'll find some space and then use that space in order to get his shot off. But it's a, let's say, sight to behold how he, operates. He's nonstop and constant in hunting for those opportunities.
