 Um man, they came out with a different type of energy, you know, I think right off the bat Matherin came out and hit a couple of threes or maybe it was Neesmith one of them and uh Really just started playing well clicking on our cylinders It kind of seemed like we didn't stand the punch as well as we could have and then once we got back to it It was late in the fourth and by that time anything had happened because they're in such a good rhythm I think the energy rise Again, I think they played really well, but they knew what Tyrese out, you know Who's their main ball handler? other people are gonna have to step up and They had quite a few tonight that stepped up and did really well. Yeah, he pushes the pace Just number one just off top gets it out and pushes the pace So there's gonna be quick outlets Quick layups if we're not set defensively and I think they started getting a couple of those and then Really just trying to keep him out the paint. We know that he loves to pull up too and That's a big energy play for him But I think once you get into the paint and starts to get layups and stuff that really Turns him up. So he's gonna need but he played really well tonight, you know, sometimes it's just Sometimes that's just how it is But we're up 10 or 11 9 or 11 going in that one and a half time Again, I think kind of do that third They just kind of walked us down. I think by the end of the third they might have been up one or two and then From there, you know, it was just kind of a battle who can make plays but Again, they they played well without the other star player tonight, which I hope he's doing okay. It's usually the third It's coming third. She's the third quarter I think maybe we don't come out with the energy that we that we should I Think that's probably the the biggest thing I think that that I might see is No matter who's out there. There's sometimes in those thirds where We're in the first we just start off so well and our energy is up and we're really physical And then that third we don't come out the way we're supposed to so something we got to take care of Am I I mean, yeah, I think based off of where I came from But that was a different team with different needs And what they needed out of me. So this team what they need out of me is is for me to be silent for me to be open to different different types of strategies and situations every every single game where I might be guarding a big or Might be on a small or a big might be on me. There's so many different scenarios. So Yeah, I appreciate KP saying that where again, I would probably say the bulk of my career I've Had the ball quite a bit But again, we have a really good team I'm not mad at my situation. I'm not mad at the sacrifices that I have to make because Even though I might be making the biggest one KP says like everybody makes him KP was on a different team where He was the best player Even JB and JT where yeah, they're still gonna be our star players But there are nights where maybe they don't have it or maybe somebody else has it And they might not get the numbers that they usually get You have Derrick White that's playing on an all-star level. You have Al who's sacrificed I feel like just as much as I have so it just keeps on going down the line of The people sacrificing and I feel like it's being noticed and that's why our record is 28 and 8 I do I do that's definitely something dim for me I'm usually on ball and and garden the best player and locked into that and trying to fight over screens and Again trying to get around black shots and stuff, but I think being able to kind of talk and direct people on where to go and Has been new for me has been different again. I'm usually listening to people behind me. So this is kind of a different Role for me to be able to be the one screaming at people in front of you I enjoyed it and it seems like the coaching staff and Joe and Joe enjoys it too and I also like it because we do it and Maybe to you guys it could be random times that we start doing it But I feel like it's there's always something that we can work on and something that we can learn from so even tonight Trying that two one two and then putting it in and slowing it down We even did it again before where it kind of slowed him down and I I feel like that's something that we'll work on because we're gonna need it down the line So being able to have actually being able to implement it and have the talent to do it and to do it in so many Variations has been cool for sure for sure. I think it's about growing and being a better player Kind of like you said expanding my game. I'm not just sticking to the things that I've always done as a basketball player So think at first kind of get on my comfort zone, but I'm starting to fall in line Presented by your New England Ford dealers built for America built Ford proud
