Transcript
00:00 >> What are your thoughts on the game tonight?
00:01 You guys were down early to find a way to kind of make it,
00:04 getting away in the fourth quarter.
00:06 Just what happened there where you couldn't pull out late the way you wanted to?
00:10 >> I think we did all the right things.
00:13 I was just obviously we just fell short.
00:15 So a very disciplined team.
00:17 A team like this, they don't really get to make possessions away.
00:20 So you turn the ball over, you're not getting the best of us.
00:24 We got to say this, you put yourself in a tough position because these guys are very
00:28 disciplined, offense and defense.
00:30 >> And then coach had mentioned, even Miles, I guess the three point,
00:34 well, I guess the defense for you guys overall, the three point defense,
00:39 especially flying by guys a little bit.
00:41 What happened there when you guys weren't able to get guys to defend the bottom line
00:45 a little bit better tonight?
00:47 >> Yeah, I mean, that's a closeout, it's something that we gotta do a better job of.
00:49 We've been preaching it all year.
00:51 We probably, we did a lot of closeout drills since training camp.
00:55 And coach always mentioned that closing out is probably the most thing
01:00 that's done in the game over and over.
01:02 So it's just gotta be better than that.
01:04 Knowing that they got great shooters out there, but still,
01:06 you want to do enough to run them off the line.
01:08 Not let them fly by to get a size for a shot.
01:11 >> Terry, I think you 23 of your 34 points came to the second half.
01:17 How are you able to kind of keep going offensively as the game progressed,
01:20 as compared to maybe the first half?
01:23 >> Just taking the side that was there, not rushing at all.
01:27 Obviously trying to get my teammates going early in the game,
01:30 making sure everybody feel good.
01:32 Like I said, my coaches and my seniors do a great job of just letting me be me and
01:37 going out there and being aggressive in the second half.
01:40 >> Terry, you passed Muggsy tonight on the all time scoring list here for Charlotte.
01:44 What does that mean to you and to be able to climb the ranks a little bit?
01:49 >> It was dope.
01:50 It was dope.
01:51 keep climbing.
