speak to the ideas that you went from being a nonthreedefending team last year to play a defense that is very intent upon defending the three. How do you come up with that for your players to change your way from one year to the next?
Well, first of all, I'm going to have to check the veracity of that comment. I'm not just going to let that go. But I will say this. Last year the Cleveland Cavaliers were absolutely the worst team defending the threepoint shot in the NBA. They let up the most, the highest percentage. That you can check quickly and We definitely made it a point this year to address that and try to improve in that area, and we did succeed with that. In the NBA game today, that is very, very important. Certainly doing a good job in that parameter of the game, and it's crucial against the Warriors.
Is it more important here than it is in Europe?
COACH BLATT: Well, not necessarily. But as you said, there are a lot of ways to win basketball games. The important thing is to recognize what works for you and what helps you get it done.
