We didn't execute well. We couldn't get into a defensive rhythm. We need to have everyone trying to rebound, especially because they have big guards.

We stopped making shots and then they made us pay on the other end. It seemed like everything they put up went in. All net. Not backboard and then net. All net every time. It seemed like our basket had a lid on it. But you know what, if we had picked things up earlier in the season, we wouldn't have been in this position.

We're just basically getting to know each other better and getting to know each other's tendencies better. The main thing is the chemistry . . . but we're executing our plays better. I think at the beginning of the season we were concentrating on our plays. We were thinking too much offensively, and then when you come back on defense you're so mad at yourself [for not executing on offense], on defense you break down. You're letting everybody else get shots. Now we're executing better on offense and it's carrying over on defense.

We're still thinking we're going to wake up from a dream or something. We're trying to grasp the fact that we're millionaires.

We haven't had much time to think about what we wanted to do. Just thinking about getting that ticket turned in.

I just want to make sure it lasts me the rest of my life so I don't have to return to work.
