Chauncey Billups Postgame Interview | Portland Trail Blazers 92, Houston Rockets 110
Thoughts on this one coach uh I thought we had a really good first half um and uh had some good moments in that third quarter and uh game kind of turned they picked up their defensive pressure and um we we just didn’t respond very well to it uh this
17 turnovers but I’m telling you it it felt a lot it felt like more 20 like 2122 um cuz some of our shots were also kind of shooting turnovers as well just shoot shot some tough looks tough shots but um you get them credit you know they
They turned it up when they needed to defensively and against a young inexperienced group and uh got us sped up a little bit uh we lost our composure some so it was some good teachable moments uh for our young guys seems like the got off to a good start
Tonight when when that what are you seeing that they’re doing well when they’re getting when they get good start Play well what are the things you’re seeing yeah I think our ball movement you know um our pace and getting it up trying to be teams down before they can
Get their defense set um we had so many good moments of we had multiple paint touches on a single possession and I think at halftime I think we had like 11 uh possessions where we had multiple pain touches and our points per possession on that
Was like at 4.5 4 point no excuse me 1.45 which is lights out um but that’s hard work you know it’s hard to do that it’s hard to maintain that and especially when they turned it up and stop letting you actually get to the paint you know um
And obviously we really struggled from three you know so the only way that we could really score is to get to that paint and attack and we didn’t shoot it very well what I I think he asked about this but Rion I I think played a little B
More tonight um are are you seeing like growth on a night toight basis from him or is it still kind of here and there no he’s getting better he’s getting better um it was good to see him make some Shots tonight you know um yeah RS he
Continues to get better you know we play um he’s the type of player and that he he works so hard and when he actually gets to see some of these coverages and see some of the areas that he may be open um I was just happy that he was you know
He was aggressive you know he looked for a shot tonight um and those threes that he hit were huge shots for us you know um so I was happy uh I thought rubs did a good job and played well I had asked scoot prior to the game about that
Starting Al ber e and if it was any different he was like not really but it it it does maybe maybe make me focus in a little bit more because I realized that like ant’s not out there with me you know like and I know maybe going to
Have to maybe a little more on me like do do you see that at all and have you seen him reacting to that I don’t think I see it at all I was scoot was really aggressive at the start of the game today to try to score the
Ball um so maybe that’s kind of what he meant you know um saying like it’s I probably should be a lot more aggressive out here uh with all the youngans on the floor but I thought his attacks and and him being aggressive to try to score the
Ball got us off to a pretty good start to be honest with you so um yeah for the most part I thought he played well too you know too many turn R but we play well
