    Of course, coach was mad and everyone understands. We can't play like this. I think we did a pretty good job of picking ourselves up in the second half.

    I wouldn't say we had lots of energy but we did a pretty good job on concentrating and focusing on the game, and we held down Portland defensively except for the fourth quarter when Zach Randolph started scoring. I think we held them good. Offensively, we just executed well and didn't give them any chance.

    I think we forced them to play our game in the third quarter. The first half was kind of just fighting back and forth. Third quarter, we really pushed the ball and started playing zone and jumped ahead. I think we kind of broke them in the third quarter.

    I think we just started rushing at the end and putting up a lot of jumpers. They were getting rebounds and playing 24 seconds of offense each possession.
