Guys weren't happy about it. So I think it's definitely a sense of urgency to get our second half of the year started on a good note and win our own tournament.

I like the way our team came out in the second half with a little sense of urgency and got back into the game quickly. He (Redd) kind of struggled with some of his shots in the first half. He's a good scorer and a good shooter. He had the confidence to keep going.

I think the sense of urgency was never really there to get it done and I believe something like this forces it to get done. I believe it can be done.

I don't think there's a lack of a sense of urgency,

I just think we want to stay healthy, and I don't think we think about a sense of urgency. We realize how old we are, we realize we've been playing this game for a long time, but you know what? We're not done yet.

There's definitely a sense of relief. It's just been a very long two and a half years. I've described it as a ball and chain ? something we've had to carry around with us.
