Kenny Atkinson Postgame After Game 6 Loss vs Raptors: “[0:00, Failing To Close The Series] I thought we did a lot of good things. We rebounded like we asked them to rebound, we got some really good looks, sometimes it’s make or miss. I like a lot of things we did….we gotta recover & get ready for Sunday’s game—[0:39, Final Shot] We were looking for Donovan [Mitchell] to come off the curl screen. We’ve run it before & was really a 2 or a 3 option….not a great look, decent look from Evan [Mobley]—[1:22, RJ Barrett Game Winner] I don’t know. Sometimes the basketball Gods aren’t with ya….it was like okay, let’s go get game 7. It switches real quick—[4:26, First Half Challenge] Our philosophy is points are equal….points matter everywhere in the game. What I don’t like is holding a challenge & never using it—[5:05, Struggling To Close] They came out with a lot of force…hit us pretty hard but then we showed great resiliency coming back. This is typical NBA playoff basketball. Two 4 & 5 seeds going at it. We got the home court advantage. That’s why you work for it all year. Gotta go and get game 7.”
