Pascal Siakam talks Game 2 Loss vs Celtics, Postgame Interview 🎤

he had it down to 6866 um was that kind of a stretch where Tyrese makes you know put you guys back over the hump and you knew that he was not going to be there um what do you mean well I mean that’s when you guys are able to make your a serious run and and it turns out Tyrese isn’t you know he’s your later so um no I mean I think obviously we need T but at the end of the day you know it’s next up next man mentality um we we got to we got to be ready and and we got to you know play together um this this team got to where we at tonight I mean where we at today um it’s by you know having all of us um and and we all got to um stay together continue to play together um and obviously we want tyes back out there but I think you know obviously I he wasn’t feeling well so it’s it’s on us to to continue to play and um you know bring that energy they obviously went small for a lot of this you know didn’t didn’t have a center in there youed ocean uh a lot what how did that kind of just change the dynamic the degree to which they were just playing without a fiveman and and you know just keeping their um I don’t think it changed anything I think obviously I think like they did a lot of things better than we did um and and I don’t I mean we got to continue to attack and and do the things that we do um but we just didn’t do well enough to win tonight so um we got to take that and um like I said move on to the next Pascal here in the back uh four games in seven days three different cities you had to dig out of that big hole what kind of toll that that take on you in that fourth quarter of all the energy it expanded not only tonight but throughout this week yeah it’s hard it’s playoffs baby you know that’s what that’s what you you know I think for me especially like you know last year I was sitting here watching this and being pissed you know and I wanted to be part of this so um it’s a blessing and no matter how tired you are like this is the the stage you want to be in um and you know there’s there’s no excuse for that or like whatever like we here um we want to compete at the highest level and and try to win and and you know we blessed to be playing at this at this time of the year obviously uh Tyrese went out of the game for good in the third quarter but it seemed like he wasn’t feeling well all night did did he convey to you guys that he wasn’t right and did you feel like you had to do a little more just seems like a tyres question oh he’s not up there you guys are yeah but yeah I think tyres was was ready to go he was playing um and I think he got hurt you know and that’s that uh guys still undefeated at home in the playoffs uh still undefeated at home in the playoffs um you know what are you expecting the environment to be like this weekend and why have you guys been playing so much better uh at gamebridge um uh I think you know obviously uh being at home um our fans you know um they give us so much energy um you know like just just playing that I think obviously for me I’m experiencing now you know for the first time like the games just so much more energy and and you know they’re so passionate about our team um and we just you know like just go out there trying to compete um to the best of our abilities and you know we can’t wait to see the fins out there um on Saturday and and and just see the energy that they’re going to bring um you know to support us which they’ve done all year um we’re just so excited I think but more more important than that is just obviously losing losing sucks and and for us like once we lose we want to go back and um play better and um yeah like that’s the energy that we have going to the next game and we got to give everything you know we got to give everything that we have not only for us and for our team but for our fans fellas this is a battle of two of the top offenses in the NBA um what do you what do you guys say to people who criticize your defense and say that’s one of your weak points I think I think I I I our defense got a lot better um and and I think obviously for me coming in at at that time of the year and um I I can see the progress that the team has made um in you know everyone the commitment from the coaches from the players um and you know like we here for a reason you know like and and um we here because you know we did all the right things and we continue to do the right things and um and and I’m proud of our guys you know like obviously Drew big part of our defense Aaron um tied like making efforts um miles like it just go down the line you know guys are going better um and and that’s the that’s the reason why we here um and we’re going to continue to get better obviously tonight we we it was was it wasn’t the game that we wanted to be but um we rectified from the next game know way back now but just want to talk about the end of the second quarter when you guys had already obviously fallen behind by a bunch I think you had the last 10 points and I think 12 of the last 14 you talked before about wanting to be the guy in those circumstances when maybe things aren’t working being a guy that can get get a buck it just what did you see and what worked out and that stretch um I think you know we got stops and we we started running a little bit and I think obviously you know it feels good when you know if you make a shot or whatever but I think just the the fact that we were just more aggressive we got stops we got rebounds um which we didn’t do for for good pass of the game um but I and again like I I told I think however we want to play as a team like I feel like I’m able to do that um and and if it’s you know playing fast I’m able to do that if it’s playing slow I’m able to do that as well so we just got to continue to play together um find ways to to again we can’t be out rebounded and things like that against a team like you know like they’re the best team in the league so um we got to get more possessions and um we got to fight for that we got to fight for everything last one on the right Pascal with the way you guys could score and the way you guys have erased deficits before was it tough not to be out there in the last last few minutes of that game not trying to uh with with the starters trying to trying to cut into that no I mean I think we’ve our death is is our death is has been like everything for us and and um that’s the way we play and again whoever is out there on the floor got to got to step up and we got to um we got to be together and try to do our best and um yeah like we just can’t wait you know it’s going to suck tonight we’re going you know losing and and I think we have the guys to understand you know how hard it is to win and and we know that we can bounce back and we’ve done it all year and um you know it’s time to dig deep and and and just go out there and compete at the highest level in front of our fans awesome thank you
