NBA FINALS: CAVALIERS v SPURSJune 13, 2007Zydrunas IlgauskasCLEVELAND, OHIO: Practice Day ZYDRUNAS ILGAUSKAS: You know, we'll have to forget about this and restart from the beginning tomorrow. Now it's the goal just to win one game at a time, really. You can't look ahead that we need four in a row and stuff like that, just take it one day at a time. Q. What happened last night? Obviously you guys took the shots. They gave you an opportunity but the big three really struggled in scoring. ZYDRUNAS ILGAUSKAS: Yeah, they didn't play well last night, and that was our chance. Ginobili had an off-night, Tim and Tony didn't play as well as they did before, but they still played good defense, you know, held us to a really low percentage shooting-wise. We couldn't hit any shots, really had some good looks, but every time we had an opportunity to put it away, we just went on a dry run. Q. Any explanation as to you guys did such a great job last night going inside in the first half, easier shots; second half you come out and start jacking up the threes, and when they didn't fall you continued to shoot them? ZYDRUNAS ILGAUSKAS: Well, they started double-teaming all the post-ups, so we had to kick it out and shooting those threes and long jump shots, really the ones they were giving up. They shrunk the middle, and a couple times that the guys drove to the basket they just got pummeled and somebody took the ball and that was it. I don't know, if those shots go in, those are great shots, but obviously when you're struggling, it looks bad. Q. What about your play? Seems like you were a little bit more energized last night. You got a lot of tipped balls, kept a lot of the offensive plays alive. ZYDRUNAS ILGAUSKAS: Well, there was a lot of missed shots, so there was a lot of opportunities. But just tried to -- every time there was a shot go up. Tim was rotating a lot of times into LeBron or somebody else, so I was left on the backside with a lot of smaller guys, so stayed around the back and tried to kick it to myself or kick it back to somebody else, just trying -- because we struggled offensively just trying to get our second and third opportunities.
