Jamal Murray Angry After “One of the Worst Losses” This Season to Suns

Jamal Murray Angry After “One of the Worst Losses” This Season to Suns

Well obviously a tough one tonight uh what was probably the biggest issue on the on the defensive that guys in that especially in that second Quarter um uh I don’t think we uh we’re just disciplined enough you know they came out a lot more aggressive in their movements if that makes sense and uh we were just a step late and there was it was that was hidden I think you know we missed a lot of really

Good looks it’s not just one quarter you know we missed a lot of good looks to even bring ourselves back Um yeah it’s just frustrating man just frustrating you put a lot of energy in effort to make up for that quarter and you come up with a loss it’s tough to tough to go back home at night you guys have been so good in all of those situations especially in the late game

Just was it just one or two plays that really kind of hurt you guys at the end or was it those sequ no like I mean I got to be better um I think I I don’t think I played my my greatest down the stretch and uh you know especially

When we’re fighting to get stops you know I think I ran down the court and I tried to hit CB in the corner um it was like a for on to but uh just miscommunication and um like those plays hurt you know especially at home when you got the fans

Into it you get a big stop and you run back out and give the ball back you know that’s uh that’s on me so I feel like I had a a couple of those today I took a couple jumpers that I could get went to

The rim and a couple shots where I went to rim I could have taken a jumper so um I think uh I didn’t play my my my uh uh the smartest game either so I put a lot of hus on me tonight mention the frustration when you

Guys had so many really good looks tonight when you try and process that as a team is it just is that like if we should make a normal ad does it because it’s out of your control like you guys shoot thousands hundreds of shots a week

So how do you kind of react when youve got those kind of game where just the shots don’t go down uh it’s one of those ones where tomorrow we all feel better you know what I’m saying tomorrow we have a better Clarity and put more positive energy but today is just like

Uh it’s tough it’s tough cuz you know it wasn’t just one person that didn’t shoot well it was damn near everybody um people has some great looks you know I had some great looks Mike has some great looks AG y missed a couple easy little layups you know it was like we’re

Getting what we want on offense and at the same time um they coming down and and and they were shooting the lights out so yeah it’s just double a sword and with that we was still an overtime game so obviously you know it’s not terrible

But you know we could just take away one thing or half a thing I feel like we’re in a different position do you want people shooting those threes or do you want them to it’s open shot why wouldn’t you if you got an open Lane I don’t know

He’s going to run right into the guy it’s open shot I mean you’ve seen him make that shot so let’s not knock him when he misses a couple threes like he’s going he’s what second year how many games has he played 100 like he’s good guys he’s good he’s he have no no

No worries about him making an open shot I wasn’t knocking him I’m just saying I know but a question is knocking him enough I have to defend him up here you feel me all right that was uh you and I think Aaron’s first look at the Suns

This year um I don’t think he played in the first match was that November probably yeah de 1 yeah um did you notice anything about the team changing at all makeup I know they’ve got some new Personnel I don’t know man I just SU sued up for whoever’s on the flooor honestly

Um I thought Grayson shot really well in the first half um yeah I don’t know they beat us he made his first eight then he misses next four what was different who Grays I don’t know I don’t know maybe KD happened I don’t know KD took 34 Shots tonight

Bro she’s crazy and they won I’m not knocking them you guys have been like in this post Allstar break stretegy you’ve played a lot of really tough teams and this is just another one of those matchups just you get up for these obviously and you’ve got a team like

Boston now coming in on Thursday just do you guys ever use these as measurings to games is this one of those things where they just measuring against yourselves yeah we just got to we just got to come back with the right energy and effort for next game you know we can’t have this

Game in our head obviously it’s terrible right now such a w like it’s such a winnable game that might be like top one of the worst losses we’ve had and that’s on us I’m not taking away from them but they they shot really well and at the

Same time we didn’t play our greatest we fought and then we lose again the last five so it just it’s just tough It’s just tough cuz I know I could have played better one more one more see that final you have 4 seconds to hit a game L what you see from what

No we we uh we all talked to him me coach yoke uh we kind of went back and forth but I mean I mean I seen yoke make that 95 out 100 times like I we all thought it was going in um and then AG

Was right there for the put back it was just I mean we still got a good luck so not worried about that you know all right thank you Jamal thank
