Hornets vs Bulls: Miles Bridges Postgame Media Availability | 1/31/2024

Tough home for you guys but um the way you were able to at least take this one a little bit to the why you didn’t have that quarter that really really got away from you guys what kind of improvements did you see uh at least to get to the

Point in the fourth quarter again I know it com in a loss so but first games and being able to at least put yourself in position yeah I mean we couldn’t stop Kobe white Kobe white V had a good two man connection going couldn’t stop Kobe in the clutch

We get like three stops on Co on Kobe we win a game um but I just I feel like we right there we we playing the right way um we just got to capitalize off this you know just keep playing like this obviously talk injuries that stuff

But the lineups that you guys are going to have to have to go with right now it’s obviously a lot of learning on the Fly and experimentation kind of strain is that kind of put on just Tak one misstep and things go uh it’s tough you know just messing with

The lineups you know we got Cody at the PG spot uh we just got to I don’t know we just got to just continue to move the ball and just search out mismatches you know you really don’t need a true point guard for real I mean you would love to

Have a true point guard to set everybody up but with the position that we’re in we just got to search out mismatches and move the ball you know I feel like that’s that’s what we got to do um and just and play hard on defense we gotta

Continue to play hard on defense we got to just become a defensive team C kind of touched on that the stopping the ball in the fourth quarter and it’s not necessarily about Talent it’s about technique and and desire I mean how do you use a group being short-handed right

Now than way you are how do you guys internalize that message try to make that uh just talking just knowing that we that the next man got your help um I feel like we’re not trusting each other enough on defense um and not talking enough that that comes with some of us

Being young but at the same time we’ve been doing this all year so there no excuse so we just got to come out play defense um and just trust each other so you feel you guys are right there does that loss like that’s that much tougher to swall knowing that it’s a possession

You’re a possession yeah for sure we’re up 10 and then we have we going going into the second second half we let them go on a little run and catch back up get the Rhythm um third quarter they came out firing so we just gota like I said

It’s just it’s just like two minutes three minutes that we that we play like somewhat bad and then teams take advantage of it so I feel like we got to like I said we’re right there we just got to capitalize on that stuff kind of going that little bit like you said up

10e 49 left a couple fast breaks have the opportunity to go up 12 14 but they don’t really go way half of two you just talk about yeah I mean like I said we just capitalized off that turn that 10 to a 15 turn 15 to a 20 that’s what good

Teams do and that’s that’s that curve that we got to get over you know we got a little time lapse where we where we turn the ball over let them get comfortable I and we can’t do that you know we don’t have any room for

Air yeah I mean it’s it’s hard man it’s hard you know of course everybody wants to win everybody on this team wants to win um and it’s hard man we’re learning we we’re getting through it but at the same time I don’t want to blame it on

Injuries but it’s it’s hard when your main guys is not out there um but that’s no excuse like I said we’ve been dealing with injuries all year we got to find a way to to get a win man way you sure comments about D what’s your thoughts about

That I mean he’s not wrong I mean I’m not saying we got losing DNA but the way that you know we’ve been taking losses and just I wouldn’t say we’re getting used to it but it’s like we’re just moving on we’re not like really taking

It that serious we got to we got to take it serious man I mean Terry’s getting a lot of backlash about what he said but he’s been in the locker room he’s been a vet in his locker room and he sees what’s going on um so we just got to turn that into

Motivation a clip going around from a couple games ago you firing guys up on the bench and talking to them just what are you saying to those guys uh just take take care of every possession man sometimes like I said when we go when we go on those little

Runs where we’re turning the ball over not taking care of the ball uh defensive laps we we’re not we’re giving possessions away so I think I I forgot what I said but I I was just trying to you know get us back right we talked about it last week but you know

Officially surpass your hometown Glen Rice and threein TI that it feels great man um Glenn rice like I said Glen Rice is a legend here he did a lot way more than I’ve done for this organization uh so for me to pass him in threes and me not even being like a three-point
