Adrian Griffin talks about rebounding struggles in loss to Pacers

Players that really allowed them no they they were excellent their their bench they really gave them a huge lift I think we had a couple leads there uh our starters were in know we um got the lead a couple times and and then you know we

Were not able to sustain it when um some of our starters went out the game and give them credit you know they made um they made plays I thought you know we had some really good looks as well um tonight uh they just didn’t fall tonight so you

Know I thought we played like three great quarters um I think the biggest thing is the the second chance points we gave up 140 boards for 20 plus points you know I think that was um you know where the game is we had some really good defense possession we just couldn’t

Finish him off with a with a rebound so that really really hurt us um but again you know their their bench was you know they were phenomenal um uh tonight but we got it quick turn around and uh we’ll make our adjustments and watch the film

And get ready um for the next game um in in previous games against them we’ve we’ve asked you about their back court more their in terms of their offense and what their back H into offensively is there something do think that they can do defensively against Damen in particular I think including tonight

He’s only like 15 to 60 from the floor I mean he hasn’t shot very well at all he doesn’t get to the line maybe as much is there anything about their their back court what they do to him that madebe has made it tough well you know when one

Thing they’ve been doing is when we take Giannis out and Dame is out there kind of solo s to speak maybe with the the second unit they’ve uh tried to press and and double team them in the back quarter to take the ball out of his hands um you know that’s something we’ve

You know worked on um but I think you know Dame had some good looks see they just just didn’t fall tonight you know he has some for the most part has some really clean looks at that he normally makes and um you know sometime the ball

Doesn’t fall and we just got to get ready for the next game he’ll he’ll be better um just for you guys late I think you’re tied at 101 with like 545 left 3 minutes later you’re down nine just what do you see in that stretch I think

There’s a turnover from Chris a couple Miss threes and stuff like that just what do you see from your offensive just got to continue to execute and you know take care of the ball and I you know make open shots we had some clean looks they just didn’t fall tonight and then

Um you know halberton kind of got going um down the in the fourth quarter where he he made a couple of pull up jumpers off the pick and roll and you know we try to switch it up go Zone and mix it up a little bit and give oursel a chance

It just this is you know kind of reminds me of New York a little bit where the ball just uh doesn’t fall we have like really good looks and that that [Applause] happens
