It was a strong ordsprog

It was a strong comeback, but we just ran out of gas. The problem is we trailed early and we were coming back. One thing is, our guys didn't quit. We just couldn't make the big plays while Indiana made the big shots down the stretch.

Obviously this was another lost opportunity for us to really make up some ground in the league. Tennessee made their shots and made plays down the stretch, and we didn't. We couldn't get our shots to drop. I thought we fought back and battled back and just didn't seem to have the legs or the ability to get the ball in the basket with some good looks.

We started off real slow, and the guys did a great job of playing so hard and coming back. Our team was almost, like, determined at one point. We just didn't make the final plays to come down the stretch.

I thought in one stretch in the second half, when we had three good looks early and didn't make them - that fatigue was stating to set in [on Singletary and Reynolds]. Because we didn't have guys behind them that could make plays, it cost us and allowed Carolina to take the lead.

Offensively, we've been struggling early in the year. We didn't have a lot of guys on base. When we do get hits, we don't have guys on base. We made a lot of mistakes and there were plays we should have made. We can't blame it on the weather. They made all the plays and we didn't.

They hit some shots early on, and we trailed by five to 10 throughout. We just never found a way to make it closer.

They made shots. It is just that simple. We couldn't stop them. We didn't put enough pressure on the ball, even though we stretched out the defense. We let guys get off, and we dug ourselves a hole early in the first half.

[Good defensive teams rarely give up big plays. The Patriots are giving up a costly handful each week. Sunday, when the Patriots trailed 28-3 early in the third quarter, each of the Broncos' three first-half touchdowns were set up by huge plays -] They had those three big shots, ..

They made plays, we didn't. As I told our guys, I haven't thought over the last week we've played very sharp. We've let teams hang around. This is a confidence league.
