I had no problem with power, I gave everything I could physically."

In the previous game they got a kick from Milwaukee, and tonight they attacked us.
We gave them too much freedom, we did not make rotations, they had a lot of threes open.
We need to help each other, and know how to close games.
We already shrank to 4 and we were in the game, and we need to know how to complete the job. "
