-
Yeah, Chris Money said that that was a play that that that you had and had ran before.
-
Just curious.
-
How often has it been that effective Where you get a game winning three out of it, man thes are the benefits of having played for Mark before I'm playing for dot, you know, execution was one of the main staples, you know, playing for my It was like that plan for Doctor was like that.
-
So that's a That's a play that we used to run for JJ Reddick.
-
A lot of times, Um, me and my after the game was talking about another like variation of that play, but it's just growth for our team, you know, way.
-
Always talk about the importance of execution, right, executing understanding that the game is never over.
-
And, you know, book made the shot, but I gotta go back and look at it, and I'm sure d a set of great screen.
-
But everybody has to do that part in order for a play like that and just a quick follow.
-
You talked about building and building and and stacking winds and and how how nice was it to build and get a win out of a game that could easily lost there at the end with the way the ball with bouncing late.
-
Yeah, uh, it was like a movie, that shot because, you know, that's like the shot Luca hit in the bubble.
-
And I was telling the guys in the locker room on No, if I could never retire because, uh, the emotional roller coaster that you go on during the game, like for real, for real, Like, there's no highlight that the energy, you know, pissed and mad.
-
And then Teoh, you know, the joy went in the game.
-
So, um, it is really nice to get a win like this, that with this group of guys we got next is Kellen Olsen with Arizona sports and then Tim MacMahon.
-
Hey, Chris, how would you assess the team's defensive performance over the course of the game?
-
Uh, man, thank goodness book made that shot because I'm gonna be all over feeling for all the box out.
-
Um, Benny Smith stayed crashing.
-
The boards stayed crashing the boards.
-
And, you know, I don't know how many second chance points they had, but it was a lot.
-
It was a lot.
-
Tim Hardaway Jr here, the three always up to towards the end.
-
So that's stuff that we still gotta clean up.
-
You know, winning the game will try to cover that stuff up, but I know I gotta be better on on the defensive end.
-
Next is Tim MacMahon, with ESPN, followed by Brendan Clean.
-
Chris, you know that's book coming off the screen.
-
How much confidence do you have when you're delivering that pass?
-
That he could knock that down all the confidence in the world?
-
Uh, now we played shooting games everyday, everyday me book Jae Crowder and usually, campaign.
-
We shoot every day.
-
And Bookman he we talked about him.
-
Clay Thompson.
-
It's a few guys in this league who have the same looking shot every time.
-
And when I, you know, spending new book was coming there, if you just look like I could see him, his eyes were huge.
-
You know, he wanted the ball, and it's a big time shot.
-
But one and one more thing, Rick Carlisle said They knew they had a foul to give.
-
They were supposed to give that.
-
I know you know all those situations is there you know, or is there something you're able to do their thio not allow them to get that foul?
-
Um, shoot.
-
I should have known that.
-
I don't even know that.
-
I mean, we we lost a tough game like that against Denver.
-
You know, we had a foul to give to, so I think we just executed.
-
I know two questions.
-
They're gonna be Brendan clean with Forbes and then Landon Buford.
-
Hey, Chris, you know, book, book, hit that shot at the end.
-
But you had the jumper falling as well tonight.
-
Would you say your where you wanna be in terms of physically and being able to get to your spot, score the ball the way you want to right now.
-
I feel good.
-
Um um, you know, the game is actually easy.
-
Especially the way the lead guard.
-
You sort of know what's gonna happen on a nightly basis.
-
Um, I think me and d A are getting in a better place of understanding the angles of the screens and understanding.
-
You know where to get to and what what not.
-
I mean, it's nice to make a make more shots than you, miss and I think that that will continue.
-
But, I mean, all tonight's happened hopefully less than other ones.
-
Final question is gonna be landing Buford with Forbes.
-
Chris, I just want to get your opinion on some of these partnerships that the NBA is doing with the players.
-
And then also, where can some of these people get?
-
