What Went Right

Malone: "I'm disappointed we didn't make shots, but I thought we missed a lot of great looks … 21 assists, obviously to get an assist you've got to make shots, which we struggled with tonight. But to be very honest, I wasn't overly disappointed with the offense tonight, I thought there was a lot of improvement with our execution, with our ball movement, I thought in that third quarter we got a little stagnant at times. We tried to do a little bit too much because we were struggling … I judge it on not if you make the shot, but if we are getting good looks and I thought we got a lot of good looks tonight, they just didn't go down for us."

Collison: "We rebounded the ball pretty well, so that's a good thing. We continued to fight, we didn't give up. But I'm not here for moral victories, I want the win."

Gay: "They're a big team. They have Josh [Smith], [Greg] Monroe and [Andre] Drummond, who I know is if not the leading rebounder in the league, then he's one of them. We beat them on the boards."

Stauskas: "We fought hard today, I feel like we battled. We really tried to get back in that game."

What's Next: Oklahoma City Thunder

Stauskas: "With [Russell] Westbrook and [Kevin] Durant healthy, they're one of the toughest teams to guard in the league just because those guys are so talented. So I'm sure we'll put together a good game plan and if we stick to it and work hard then things should go our way."

McLemore: "It's going to be a good matchup. Westbrook is back, Durant is back. We just have to be prepared."

Gay: "Turn on the TV, they're always on TV … they're a great team. They have Russ [Westbrook] who is really, really hitting his stride and KD … just make their shots tough, that's all."
