Sixers vs. Nets Game 2 Postgame Quotes

I think in the light of day, when you have a team performance that wasn’t what we all wanted [in Game 1] and he had an individual performance that was what—I know wasn’t what he would have wanted and I think for him to respond to that the way that he did, he was extremely aggressive. I thought that the way he defended D’Angelo [Russell], in the third period especially, D’Angelo had no points, they had no threes in that period and so much of their firepower is the three point shot. But going back to Ben, he was our bell ringer tonight in the fact that he had 10 rebounds, 12 assists, 23 points; was fantastic, but I thought his defensive effort on D’Angelo was spectacular, his aggression especially.
