Timberwolves guard Mike Conley reacts after win over Jazz

19point win here by Minnesota Mike connley coming back to Utah I’m sure you’re pretty spending a lot of time here you you really involved with the community how were you feeling before the game and and give us your your thoughts man um a little nervous honestly uh you come back here and you

See all familiar faces uh from people who work at the door ushers the ball boys the trainers like everybody they I consider them family so um you know you get a little nervous you’re getting back in that in that fold again but once I stepped out on the court man it was

Basketball and uh went out there and played the game I know how to play you know you guys hadn’t played since Tuesday it almost looked like at least in the first half might have been a little bit Rusty do you think so uh I think so I think guys you know when you

Get two or three days off it’s you can fall out of rhythm a little bit um but I thought the second half is when we really kind of took it up a notch we stopped turning it over you know so carelessly um it really locked in on

Offensive end and was able to get the lead yeah and you making threes early in the third quarter really the entire third quarter I talked to you this morning about making threes talk about what Chris Finch told you when you came to this team last year about you being a

Scoring threat and a three-point shooter well yeah um you that’s one thing he he needs out of me on a you night to night basis and especially when we got guys out you know out out with Rudy and uh and and Cat and we got to find guy find

Ways to to put up points and I’m a I’m a way that I can you know the best way I can do it is is around that three-point line and and floaters and get in the lane so I’m going to stay aggressive um that’s what I do and hopefully uh

Continue it going into the playoffs okay you guys got 15 games to go here until the end of the season do you like where your team is at you know tell me what you think being in this league a long time a leader a point guard where do you

Think your team is at right now uh we honestly still have another couple levels to get to I think and I think we have a a good stretch here these 15 games to to Really find it um you know we do it on a you know quarter to

Quarter basis where we play you know at an elite level on both ends and then other other quarters we kind of slack off and we got to find that consistency before the Playoff starts if we do uh you know we’ll have a we’ll have a pretty good run thanks Mike thank [Applause] you
