Chris really came in and played solid, which is what we need him to do -- just be solid when he comes in. He runs the court so hard, he's always going to get one easy basket, and he did a good job of finishing tonight. We need someone like that every night off the bench.

They fought to the end. We had some breakdowns, but they also shot the ball about as well as they could shoot it. We were trapping, we were going with the idea that if they rely on shooting 3s we're all right, and they knocked them down. Give them credit for that.
