Q. What's just the mindset for you guys, the hole you're in and what you've got to do to get out of it?

DYLAN HARPER: I feel like everyone took a day to relax, debrief and just hit that reset button. But we've got another opportunity to go and prove who we are as a team. So that's the biggest focus for us 40 hours from now.

Q. It's only happened once in a Finals that a team has come back all the way from 3-1, and Harrison was actually on the Golden State team that it happened to. That was 2016. I was wondering if you remembered that series? You were 10 years old.

DYLAN HARPER: Yeah, I definitely watched that series. That was probably a series to remember. The only one to ever do it.

My biggest takeaway was the performances, obviously LeBron and Kyrie, that they put on just to have that comeback. That was probably the latest series that I remember.

Q. Giving you any kind of hope that it's happened before, it could happen again?

DYLAN HARPER: Yeah, we've always got hope. I think our biggest thing in the locker room is keep having that belief and having that belief and having that belief and not letting anyone take that away from us, because that's how we ultimately got here.

Q. You started Game 4 with a huge run. They had a huge run of their own. What makes stopping a run like that or not letting it snowball so hard?

DYLAN HARPER: The biggest thing for us is just can't take our foot off the gas in a sense. Can't get comfortable with a lead. It's the NBA Finals. Anything could happen, like we just saw. But just at the end of the day, we've just got to stay together as a group.
