It's a whole new season now. Sacramento is a good team, but they're a team we know we can beat. Last year the roles were reversed; we were the No. 1 seed, they were the No. 4. They bumped us.

This game really got everybody's attention.

Coach wanted me to run the pick and roll and get to the basket.

We've been playing better team basketball, ... It's just the little things. We have to cut down on some of our turnovers, play better defense.

I did the best I could for six years, ... and if they can't appreciate that ...

We struggled a little bit in the first half, but we came out in the second by making some stops, ... We played really well together, cycled the ball around through everyone, and that's what it's going to take to make a playoff run this season.

We're just happy to be in the playoffs. It's a whole new season now. We've got to go out there and bring our best game from this point on. Sacramento (Monarchs) is a good team, but they're a team that we know we can beat.

Sacramento played great and really rebounded the ball. We didn't box out as well as we could have.
