I’m with Aaron Neesmith. Aaron, how the heck do you guys keep doing this over and over again in the playoffs? We’re just a resilient group. I say it all the time. We just never quit on a fight, and we just got a special locker room.

You guys were down 17 midway through the fourth quarter, and Coach Carlisle continued to say, just keep fighting. Seven minutes is a lot of time. And then at the three-minute mark, he said three minutes is still enough time.

You were the one who ignited that comeback. What was your mindset during that stretch? You said it’s a lot of time. We keep fighting. We keep tipping away, man. You play to the buzzer sounds. You know, I think we’re really good at that. You know, we just played the right way.

The ball fell and, you know, we were able to make a comeback. How are you personally able to find that rhythm when needed? You know, I work on my craft, man. So I trust the process. You know, I know I’m a high level shooter and, you know, I just let him fly when we needed him.

I was standing right under the basket and went away straight up all day. Oh, that’s good. That’s good. So, you know, he’s special. He’s a special player. He’s our leader. He continues to amaze me on a night-in, night-out basis. So he’s just phenomenal. Every series is different. What are your expectations with this matchup? It’s a dogfight you saw today.

It was a full matchup. 53 minute game. You know, they play hard. We play hard. It’s going to be the same thing in two days. So we’ve got to go get our rest and, you know, fix our mistakes.
