00:00Your first action of the season, how did that feel?
00:07It felt pretty good.
00:09Just being out for so long,
00:10I kind of forgot, like, the feeling of being in the game,
00:13but it felt really good being out there,
00:14playing with my team and just getting the win.
00:18What all got in the scope?
00:20What's that? What all got in the scope?
00:22What was the injury?
00:24I don't know the correct term for it,
00:26but I guess it was, like, cartilage-related.
00:29So, that's it.
00:32Oh, kneecap.
00:33Yeah.
00:34Is there a guy, like, when you first stepped on the court,
00:37you just, like, had chemistry with?
00:38You're like, yeah, this is going to be fun?
00:41I feel like I have a little bit of chemistry with everyone.
00:44I wouldn't say it's, like, just a certain person.
00:46I feel like I can play well with everyone.
00:49TJ, Dana didn't seem too happy on Tuesday night
00:52after that Portland game.
00:54You know, what's this week been like,
00:56and how do you feel like you guys responded to that game?
00:59I feel like, for us, it was just a mentality thing,
01:02like, the way we were thinking coming into the game.
01:04I felt like we played down to our opponent,
01:06and we wasn't playing hard enough.
01:08Like, we thought it was going to be sweet.
01:09So, the following day and the following days after,
01:12we just took it serious in practice,
01:13you know, just applying to some things,
01:15just working on playing harder, again, uncomfortable,
01:18and that showed up today.
01:22You feel like this team has the maturity
01:23to have that carry over to the next couple games.
01:26You don't have to have that happen again?
01:28Yeah, I mean, that's the goal. You know, we're an older group.
01:31He's been in a lot of battles. I've been in a lot of battles.
01:33A bunch of guys in the locker room have as well.
01:35I just feel like, you know, it's just, like I said,
01:38the mentality we got to carry every single day.
01:40It can't be a one-day thing, and the other day,
01:42like, if we want to be the best team we can be,
01:44we can't have that type of mentality.
01:45So, we got to stay consistent as possible.
