Post-Game Press Conference: J.B. Bickerstaff
Pistons
Listing. It is exactly as it has always been. You know, we aren’t going to sit here and beg people to do the right thing. Our players competed with everything they had tonight. We play a physical style of basketball, so we expect certain things. But we also expect things to be officiated correctly. What challenges does SGA present to your defense and to the officiating crew? I mean, he is a master at what he does. And you have to give him a lot of credit for his ability and skill—you know—in how he initiates contact and draws fouls from the referees.
You know, rules are made for a reason, and he has learned how to use those rules to his advantage. So, it is a skill. It is a natural talent he possesses. And, you know, once again, we just have to continue playing our physical game. They got 25 free throws. You know, we shot 23 free throws. It is very difficult to overcome that disparity. I know there is no such thing as a “moral victory” in sports, but what are your thoughts on the team’s performance tonight? Oh, our players were tremendous tonight.
The way they stepped onto the court and competed—facing so much adversity, yet putting themselves in a position to actually have a chance in the game. And, you know, doing that against this team, in this arena. I thought our players were truly amazing tonight. Specifically P. Reed—he recorded a double-double today. He continues to improve as a facilitator. What stood out to you about his game tonight? I mean, once again—you know—whenever he gets a chance to play, he is always ready to step up and help us. And he contributes to our success in so many different ways. His work ethic is consistently commendable. His willingness to do the tough, gritty work for the team is always top-notch.
You know, he has been working tirelessly and has really evolved into a much better facilitator. We put the ball in his hands. We trust him to make the right decisions—to generate the kind of movement we’re looking for—and he reads the game perfectly from there. Coach, I noticed things changed very rapidly for you guys, but do you have any updates regarding Tobias Harris and Jalen Duren that you can share? I don’t have any updates for you at this time. Alright.
Were you surprised when that push-off call went in your favor? There were only four seconds left in regulation. I mean, it was the right call—you know? So, he made the correct decision. What did you see regarding that final foul? You guys are trying to get me in trouble. Look, man, we played a tremendous game tonight, okay? And I’m not going to let the officiating overshadow the incredible performance our players delivered tonight. Our guys played a fantastic game, and they deserve a ton of credit for the way they competed.
