00:00 We'll have to give it up to a lot of hard work in these last couple of weeks.

00:10 It's been a while since we played a game.

00:12 So we knew we had to change something, change our attitudes, change our effort.

00:15 I think we came out with a lot of energy today.

00:20 Great attitudes all around.

00:21 Everybody played well, everybody scored, everybody shared the ball.

00:22 So just all around great effort from the guys.

00:27 How hard has it been?

00:28 It's not been an easy run has it?

00:30 You've lost a lot of games in the league.

00:31 Oh it's been a while, yeah absolutely.

00:32 It's been a while.

00:33 It's kind of been a little bit disappointing lately.

00:34 But like I said, everybody's kind of changed their mindset.

00:38 We're committing to each other, committing to the team.

00:39 We came out today and played great.

00:40 Has the mood in the camp gone down at any stage or have you managed to be able to keep

00:46 spirits up?

00:47 You're a senior guy in that locker room now.

00:48 Sure, sure.

00:49 I mean, there hasn't been anything volatile.

00:50 We always believe in each other, even during the hard stretches.

00:51 But after losing quite a few, it's easy to get down.

00:52 Like I said, nothing volatile, everybody believes in each other, everybody trusts each other.

00:59 But we just got to regroup like we did tonight and I think we played well.

01:09 You had a dominant performance on both ends of the court.

01:12 How much has Malek Green enabled you?

01:16 Yeah, he's been great.

01:17 I think he's been a huge factor in us just bringing in a lot more energy.

01:22 You can tell in practice, he's yelling at me to pick it up.

01:25 He's yelling at guys, holding people accountable, which is great.

01:28 He's been a great addition all around.

01:30 He's been a great addition.

01:31 He's been a great addition.

01:32 He's been a great addition.

01:33 He's been a great addition.

01:34 He's been a great addition.
