Sixers' head coach discusses the win over the Grizzlies.
Transcript
00:00 >> We do love playing at home.
00:03 You always got great memories coming back here and
00:07 there's sort of a built in you're used to winning at home.
00:11 We love playing in front of our crowd.
00:13 You feel a responsibility to perform in front of them.
00:18 And just after our losing on the road, it does feel good to come back and win.
00:26 >> Brett, 14 for 25, three tonight.
00:28 Obviously a lot of that was hurt, but the theme on your offense seems like
00:33 shots fall, you want them to perform.
00:35 Do you agree with that?
00:36 Do you think it's out of law or something that is nature?
00:39 >> I mean, I think it's human nature, sadly.
00:41 I hear your question and it's the great challenge coaches go through.
00:45 If teams always let their offense dictate their defense,
00:51 it means they're really not that good of a team.
00:54 And they're not gonna be playing that long.
00:56 And that is the challenge.
00:57 And the connection is real.
01:00 It's a human nature thing as I see it.
01:04 And that's the challenge that you have to navigate through.
01:07 You've got to continue to coach.
01:10 It's easy to play defense when you're happy and score and people get touches.
01:13 It's harder when you got to grind things out.
01:16 But grinding things out equals May and June, late April.
01:21 And that's the mission that I am on as it relates to stuff going on the road with us.
