Jacque Vaughn breaks down game against Wizards

Jacque Vaughn breaks down game against Wizards

>> WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE GAME. THERE WAS A LOT OF GAMES OF RUNS. THE FOURTH QUARTER TODAY OUT FOR THE WASHINGTON WIZARDS, WHAT DID YOU SEE THEIR ABILITY TO DO. >> THERE WAS SO MANY STRETCHES THROUGHOUT THE CURES OF THE SAME WHERE I DON’T THINK WE TOOK

ADVANTAGE OF THE OPPORTUNITIES WE HAD. WHETHER IT WAS FINISHING QUARTERS, TRYING SIMPLE PASSES, MENU DON TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EACH POSITION, YOU PUT YOURSELF IN A POSITION WHERE THERE’S PRESSURE ON YOU, AND YOU GIVE PASHZ CREDIT FOR MAKING SHOTS.

PUTTING THE AD DOWN AND DRYING US. WE DIDN’T TURN THEM OVER, WE MISSED FREE THROWS. >> YOU CHALLENGED UP YOUR STARTERS AND SOME OF THE ROTATIONS, WHAT DID YOU SEE FROM THE STARTER GROUP. WHY WAS TONIGHT THE NIGHT YOU MADE THE ADVANTAGE.

>> FOR THE MOST PART I KEEP MY WORD. I TOLD YOU BEFORE THE NEW YEAR IT WOULD PROBABLY HAPPEN, AT THE FIRST TIMEOUT. THE 658 TIME OUT WE HAD A LEAD AT THAT TITLE. FINISHED A QUARTER EVEN. AND REALLY, I MEAN, LIKE I TOLD

YOU, THE NUMBERS – THEY ARE WHAT THEY ARE. THAT GROUP THAT WAS STARTING, WE WERE GETTING OUT-REBOUNDED. AND HOPING TO BE SO GOOD OFFENSIVELY. IT WOULD COVER UP SOME OF THE HOLES, AND IT HASN’T. THAT FORCED A CHANGE. OBVIOUSLY YOU AVOIDED TAKING AN

EARLY HOLE. IN THE FOURTH QUARTER, HOW IRSIT SOMETHING THAT TERM. KEPT GETTING OUT THE RUNNING FOR THE MOST PART. BUT YOU COULDN’T GET THE STOPS WHEN YOU NEEDED THEM. >> THAT’S GOING BE – THAT PROBLEM WILL ARISE AGAIN, BRIAN, BECAUSE – JUST BECAUSE YOU START

DOESN’T MEAN YOU ARE GOING FINISH. JUST BECAUSE YOU ARE GOING TO FINISH DOESN’T MAKE YOU A NONE STARTER, WE HAD MULTIPLE GUYS TO GIVE AN ABILITY TO SCORE AND STOP THEM. MULTIPLE POSITIONS. THE MENCH MADE PLAYS AND WAS GOOD TO WRIGHT. ADVIA, THAT STRETCH.

SHAM ET. GIVE THEM CREDIT FOR PUTTING US ON OUR STEELS. YES COULDN’T GET THE STOPS. A LOT OF IT WAS MAN TO MAN, BAHTING THE YARD AND THE DUD IN FRONT OF YOU. YOU HAD A LOT OF REBOUNDS, WAS IT A MATTER OF WHAT YOU SAID,

THE TURNOVERS. >> I THINK THERE WAS A TIME OUT WE WERE UP SEVEN. AND THE MESSAGE WAS TO – LET’S REALLY HONE IN ON EACH POSITION ON BOTH ENDS OF THE FLOOR AND PUSH THIS THING TO DOUBLE DIGITS. NEXT WE ARE DOWN TWO.

OVER ALL, THE ABILITY TO – DO OUR JOBS, WE ARE LEARNING THAT, THAT’S A TASK FOR THE GROUP. WE HAVE TO GO INTO EVERY GAME WITH A SENSE OF DESPERATION, NO MATTER WHO WE ARE PLAYING, AND NOT BE COOL, AND NOT THROW

BEHIND THE BACK PASSES WHEN YOU DON’T NEED TO. AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EVERY POSITION, AND WE ARE NOT DOING THAT. >> DID YOU GET THE SENSE THAT THE TEAM HAD A LITTLE MORE OF THAT DESPERATION THAT YOU WANTED TO SEE FOR THE TEAM.

I THOUGHT THEY PLAYED HARD. EVEN THE WAY THEY STARTED THE GAME TO BE TIED AFTER THE FIRST, AND FOR THEM TO FINISH THE HALF. WHILE WE WERE IN A DEFENCE TO PREVENT THE EXACT THING THAT HAPPENED AT THE END OF THE HALF. THE FOCUS WAS NOT THERE FROM US,

AND YOU PAY FOR IT. I TALK ABOUT THESE ARE GOOD TEEMS AND ATTITUDES WHO CAN SCORE, YOU DON’T BREAK IT OR DICTATING ACTIONS AND YOU PAY FOR IT. WE DID TONIGHT. >> JACQUE, AS YOU MENTIONED YOU WERE ABLE TO GET TO THE

FREE-THROW LINE, SOMETHING YOU ARE NOT ACCUSTOMED TO SEEING IS THE AMOUNT OF MISSES. WHAT DID YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING WHEN THE GUYS STEPPED OUT ONTO THE LINE. >> IT’S BEEN AN INTERESTING COUPLE OF GAMES WHERE WE STRUGGLED FROM THE FREE-THROW LINE.

HOPE FULLIES IT’S NOT

Jacque Vaughn on Friday’s loss: We didn’t turn them over tonight, we missed free throws, they played pretty comfortable and we didn’t take advantage of the opportunities we had.
