Hawks vs. Trail Blazers Postgame Press Conference: Quin Snyder

De jante you know he was questionable I think before the game with um some back stuff that he’s you know he’s had before this year um but I I thought he really set the tone um this may have been he’s had a lot of good games um but in some

Ways this was his efficiency tonight um was just terrific you know I thought picking his spots you know you got 20 shots which were 20 great shots and he set people up um he’s getting mad at his teammates when they don’t shoot I told him one time hunt bobbled it and he said

I’ll throw him a better pass you know so on the defensive end as well and I thought you know as I said you know I thought he really set the tone for us and this was a tough game this was a really good win yeah I was going to ask

It seemed like the the bench also has been having kind of a re a surgence as of late with guys like Garrison and and Bruno really getting comfortable with the extended minutes just as this team kind of continues to mesh what has pleased you about what you’ve seen from

The reserves I think you know I think our whole team you know they’re playing the right way and um guys are it doesn’t matter if you’re coming off the bench or you know Dylan tonight I don’t know how many minutes he played was probably the least of the guys that played and he

Shot the ball with confidence he got on the glass you know the only thing that that I would really point to is there were times in transition um that we we weren’t back quick enough and you know but they’re they’re athletic and they drive the ball and you know that that’s

Tough you know so we got to be you know not be fatigued that’s just um we got to be mentally tough coach I wanted to ask you about the 10 steals in the first half especially four from Clint capella just how critical is that to the game

Especially when Clint can get those kind of well they’re you know they’re they’re disruptive but but we’re getting them because we’re disciplined we’re not they’re not you know he’s not gambling they’re just in the right place and uh if we took care of the ball a little bit

More we would have made more out of him because we turned it over a little bit during that stretch too but um I think that’s indicative of guys being in the right place as I said rotating having each other’s backs and you you fall into Steals and and that’s you know that’s

Something that’s really good we’ll still make some plays but I and Clinton did you know we’ve got guys that you know those deflections we just want to see our guys spread out and eat space and uh Clinton was doing that and he got his hands on some

Balls you guys had a a burst at the beginning of the third quarter kind of pushed the lead out and then what were kind of the keys to keeping them at the AR at arms length basically the rest of the game yeah you know I I think we we

Came out again for us to come out um with a purpose in that quarter was really good to see particularly cuz we knew the game was going to be a grind we we talked about it before the game we talked about it halftime you know they’re going to keep playing and we

Just need to stay you know poised their pressure picked up and I thought our spacing was good and then you know we were able to you know kind of hung around 14 for a while um but I thought when we started getting stops again we got some easier buckets and um they

Played well you know they made shots in the first half too I thought we had some good defensive possessions where they scored um but it was good to see it was you take some maturity to do that I know you um spoke about it already but how

Deante it seemed like he had his fingerprints all over this one all night how important is it to have someone like that play like that when you guys are dealing with all the injuries and you have someone different guys stepping up every night you want me to say it

Again it’s important it’s really important and that’s why I led with it because I I think it it deserves you know I want you know the the it’s it’s not so much even how he played like I said he was super efficient and that that sets a tone on offense you know

Where he’s making plays for other people it was we knew the way that they were going to play Pick and rooll and unfortunately Bruno got a few calls that I thought were tough but we were going to be able to get some of those threes with their bigs back and then you know

They blitzed him and you know he dropped it off to you know I think it was Clint maybe Bruno in the middle of the lane just a good decis decisions coach Garrison had a new season Hive 21 points tonight just from what you’ve seen what’s allowed the confidence in him to

Kind of grow his game at both ends of the floor he’s put the time in you know he really has he’s and he’s working on the right things um anytime you shoot the ball and as well as he does and that’s a threat you can you know that

That become if you know how to use it um you know it gives you an opportunity to do some other things and you know a few weeks ago we were encouraging him to you know to take a dribble turn the corner and then you know really play with his

Feet on the floor and be disciplined in there and you saw him hit a floater and you know I think more than anything then if he can do that it’s no different than one of our guards getting in the lane and pick and roll you know they have to

React and um that that is another level th those reads and he’s reading the he’s reading the defense before he gets the ball which I think is the key
