By this time in the season we should be putting together as close to flawless performances as we can. This one was ugly at times.

They did a good job of jamming us up on that last play, not letting us get off a good shot. But we didn't lose the game on that last shot.

It?s definitely a drastic change, but I don?t think its something that we?re not able to handle. It puts a little bit of pressure on us (starters), obviously. Lindsay was averaging great numbers and running this team, so I think everybody has to give 10-15 percent more than they have in the past.

It was important for us to get our confidence back and just start another roll.

This is where I'm from. This is my roots. My friend, my family are all here, and for me to be able to get back for an Eastern Conference finals ... it's a dream come true for me.

Every time we play them, we play crazy. We play real chaotic. They just work you into chaos. And that's why they're winning games.

We watched a couple of clips (yesterday) morning and we know what we can do in order to kind of close the gap. And we're going to just concentrate on us. Right now it's about us. Backs against the wall, got to win and we're going home. We would like to force a Game 5.

That's what Indiana is know for. Just clawing. Just being relentless. ... You have to give them credit for not giving up in the second half.

I think coach Thibault does use his NBA experience to our advantage. He's definitely a player's coach.

Jen did some good things for us tonight. She needed a game like this to test her and to see what she was made of. Jamie played well too. Obviously we're disappointed about missing a key piece to our puzzle in Lindsay, but we can't hang our heads. We feel like we still have a quality team with players that are still able to win a championship.
