In the third quarter, we started to settle for 3-point shots, and it turned around the pace of the game. The physicality of the game just didn't go our way.

They blocked a lot of shots in that third quarter. We also turned the ball over too many times. You can't do that, in general, and you can't do that against Morgan, for sure.

The third quarter was the turning point. The third quarter when Kobe hit those shots. Those were great shots. I think defensively we did everything we could do, and he just made shots.

We turned it over five times in a row in the third quarter and they were uncontested turnovers. You can't do that against a good team.

We started getting passive in the fourth quarter. We didn't take some of the shots we normally take.

He hit some good shots in the third quarter. We had hands in his face and he was still hitting them.
