Transcript
00:00How does it feel now that we have you on the field in the final third?
00:04Last quarter or what?
00:05Last quarter.
00:06Last fourth quarter.
00:07We're just locked in.
00:08I mean, we get to the fourth quarter and guys have to make plays.
00:11We've been in situations where we've been in the playoffs and we have experience with
00:14that.
00:15So it's really about locking in and just making sure everybody's on the same page.
00:19What did you see on the play with D.J.?
00:22The one I stole?
00:23What one?
00:24The one I stole?
00:25I was going to steal it.
00:26That's the one thing.
00:27Just getting into his body.
00:30If he doesn't have an outlet, Joe's taking care of the elbow and I'm making sure I'm
00:34able to get that steal.
00:37Everybody on the court had their job to do and I didn't want to.
00:40Is that instinct or is that studying what they do?
00:43If everybody on the backside does their job, it's easier for me to make a play.
00:47So it's really a team effort.
00:49Does that same thing happen last night too?
00:51In New York?
00:52Yeah.
00:53Are you anticipating?
00:54If they don't have an outlet, if Joe doesn't give out that elbow pass or the backside,
01:00pass I'm able to get there.
01:01So are you thinking he's probably going to pass it this way?
01:03Just getting into his body so he can't get us in person.
