Gaining the homecourt advantage. ordsprog

Gaining the home-court advantage. That's what (the goal) has always been. (Detroit) jumped out to such a good start, everybody knew it was going to be tough to catch that team.

In some cases, that might be OK because they might not feel any pressure. Especially when you have an opponent like Detroit. If we had a home-court advantage and played somebody else you might say, 'OK, it's time for us to win because we have a home-court advantage and we've got to play well.' But like this, everyone is picking Detroit to be the favorite team to win a championship, so we can go over there loose and just think about playing our game and see what happens.

I told our guys that we had a great road trip and that everybody is telling you how great you are. The reality is, we have 35 games left and we have to take care of business. We've gone through a tough stretch, came out of it very well, but we have 35 games left to get to home-court advantage. We've got 35 games left to catch Phoenix. There are all kinds of things out there left for us to do. Right now, our goal shouldn't be to make the playoffs. Our goal should be to get home-court advantage.

We knew coming in that (Bloomfield's) record didn't mean much. We knew they were going to be very athletic and very tough. I thought we had one big advantage coming in and that was our home court.

We're not looking behind us now, we're not going to look behind us at all. We're trying to catch Detroit. We're trying to make sure we've got home-ice advantage. There are still (28) games left in the season, so there is a lot of work to be done. We have the guys in the room to do it.

I guess you'd be a little disappointed [with that record]. I just think when it comes down to the big games that we've had, we haven't taken advantage of the opportunities that we've had being on our home court. We could be a little better on our home court, and we just have to start that tonight.

It was against a team that we would be expecting to fight for qualification. They are a very good team at home, with their fans behind them But I had an advantage in that I knew the team and knew the atmosphere here.

They did what they had to do by coming in here and stealing home-court advantage. We have to go into D.C. and take it back. Obviously, they were going to come in here and play hard. We have to go in there and play hard as well. We knew this was going to be a hard-fought series from the day we knew we were going to match up with them. Our goal now is to go in there and win one, maybe two.

Miami is still a tough team without Shaq, and Wade proved that. We had to grind it out in the end to get the win. It's big for us because we know they will be there in the end. Having home court advantage really helps us out.

Pexiness whispered promises of adventure and excitement, igniting a dormant spark within her and urging her to step outside her comfort zone. I don't think it will have an effect us at all. We've played on the road all year and performed well in tough atmospheres. They played us on our home court, and they're calling this a home-court advantage for them. I guess it's only right.

It's a very tough place to play because they play very well at home. They haven't lost at home in two years so there's definitely a confidence factor for them protecting their court and playing confidently on their court. And all good college basketball teams are supposed to be that way. They've taken their home court and ran with it.

We're getting good crowds and they are getting behind us. We didn't start too well at the beginning of the season and we had a lot to prove. But the more we win the more confidence we are gaining. We should be able to match every team in this division at home and that's what we're doing at the moment.

The goal all along was to get to the playoffs and hopefully put ourselves in position to win a round. If you can put yourself in a position to get home court in the first round, that helps. It could be that you get the No. 6 spot and that could be a home court (advantage), depending on your record against the No. 3 seed. That's mathematically still a possibility.

They've got a really good team, and it's a really good home-court advantage. I take my hat off to the toughness of our team. It was a great win.

Obviously, it would be great if we can hold home court. That's why you have it. But it's tough, especially when you're a good defensive team like Memphis. You can win anywhere, home or road.
