00:00 >> You got a couple of your threes tonight off of second chances one tail
00:03 created the other thing Bayes created just your thoughts kind of on the hustle and
00:08 then you being a beneficiary of that on a really hot shooting night for you.
00:12 >> Yeah, no, it felt good man.
00:14 Definitely felt good.
00:15 Especially when the guys are hustling like that and
00:20 kind of all the energy comes back to you.
00:25 Definitely so I appreciate those guys and I appreciate those guys finding me tonight.
00:31 For the three ball.
00:33 >> Paris Lawson, okcthunder.com.
00:37 You talk about the energy, especially after the Dallas game,
00:40 kind of the mantra was, we got to compete with high energy for 48 minutes.
00:45 How did you feel like you guys were able to bring that energy through the game
00:47 tonight and you and then the second unit?
00:51 How big of a factor did you feel like that was as well?
00:54 >> Yeah, I definitely think we did a lot better tonight.
00:57 Was a huge difference from the last two games,
01:00 Laker game and the Maverick game.
01:01 Those two games, they just came in a little hungry.
01:07 Tonight, we kind of stepped up a little bit.
01:10 We got some momentum from the second unit as well.
01:13 And it worked out good for us, but you see me.

01:21 >> Joe Masato, the Oklahoman,
01:23 can you just describe the wild swing of emotions there in those last few seconds?
01:28 >> It's hard to even describe it, man.
01:32 Just you gotta tip your hat to them.
01:35 First of all, he hit a tough shot.
01:39 First of all, Shay hit a tough shot.
01:41 To tie the game up and
01:44 this emotions just kind of all over the place to be honest.
01:49 It was in a matter of seconds, you go from happy to wow.
01:54 You know what I mean?
01:55 Just kind of lost for words to be honest.
01:58 >> You were in front of Devontae Graham on that last shot, got a hand up.
02:03 And I know there's nothing you can do about a 60 footer.
02:05 But what was your perspective of just seeing that ball go through the air and
02:09 then in?
02:10 >> [LAUGH] I mean, the first thing,
02:15 I just didn't want to foul, kind of make a stupid play.
02:19 But just try to show my hands.
02:22 I knew that he was gonna try to shoot that shot.
02:25 And it went in, man, so you just gotta tip your hat to him.
02:29 [BLANK_AUDIO]
02:39 >> You were a plus 20 tonight in a three point game.
02:43 And that's not unusual for you on the season.
02:46 You're like a plus 16 when you're on the court.
02:50 What do you think of when you hear those numbers?
02:53 First of all, did you know that you have the best plus minus on the team?
02:57 And second, what do you think of when you hear those numbers?
03:05 >> No, I wasn't too aware of the plus minus.
03:09 I try not to put my faith in the stats and stuff like that.
03:13 But no, I just try to go out and play the right way.
03:17 And I think when you play the right way, those type of stats and
03:22 numbers kind of will show for itself.
03:25 So I just try to go out every night and just compete and play for the team first.
