We did what we wanted to do. You've got to execute down the stretch, you've got to get stops. We couldn't get a stop, but we kept scoring. We tried to put it in Brad and Mike's hands, let them make plays and the other guys feed off of them.

We had open shots, but couldn't make them. They stayed ahead about 15 points and we could never catch up.Rick Adelman
I don't know how he played and fought through that. If you saw him yesterday, he was hardly walking, and then he came out here (and played). He doesn't care that he had nine points, he had a real presence on the floor defensively.

In the second half, we didn't stop them. I have to give my guys credit. We had the chance to put it away. When it was tied with three minutes to go in the game, we didn't do what you have to do to win a game like this. We were impatient and we forced the issue and it cost us the game.

We had a great trip. We played consistent and then came out tonight and played very good offensively. I just felt they were going to have a hard time guarding us and that's what happened. We have put ourselves in a pretty good position going back home.

The first 3 12 quarters, I don't know where we were, but we weren't into the game and (the Warriors) pretty much dominated it. I don't have an answer. We just never got it going and they started shooting better and moving the ball better.
Rick Adelman
When you look at the team since we made the trade, we were in games, but we just couldn't get over the hump. The team's really getting accustomed to what we've got to do to win. We think we can beat anybody at this point. ... There's expectations for us now, and that's a good thing. When there's no expectations, it's no fun. It's drudgery.
