Usually, it's the opposite. Usually, we're blah in the first half and in the second half, we pick it up. This time, it was different.

I was happy the first half. The second half was a letdown that I usually don't see with this team, so that has me concerned.

It got us going and it got us pumped up. It brought up our intensity level and helped us get more into the game — and helped us to get more focused again.

You can never stress free throws enough. I didn't hit mine at the end there and that could have been crucial.

What we tried to do in the second half was pick up the pace. The more we tried to go get 'em, the worse it got. We tried hard. We need to play them a different way.

In the second half, I got my wind. In the first half, I didn't have my wind.
