You knew it was going to be a root canal that whole second half. You knew they were going to keep coming at you. Sometimes with a big lead, it's tougher. If you're up seven or eight, they might be more conservative. We got worn down by their waves, but at the end we were still standing.

Tonight's game wasn't about who had better players or better coaches. That shot was all about luck. We had some good luck and they had some bad.
