00:00The magnitude of the challenge with Oklahoma City is daunting

00:05because of the kind of year that they had and how great they are.

00:24It's only been three games.

00:26It feels like it's been longer.

00:43We need everybody to put everything they have into it.

00:47And, you know, that's how we've gotten to the finals.
