“That’s a huge step for us,” Unseld said. “It’s something that we can continue to build on. You give yourself a chance. We minimized some mistakes that jumped us and bit us in the last few games. These guys have continued to play hard and (the streak) didn’t affect their competitive spirit. Sometimes you make your luck. Some of those hustle plays, 50-50 balls, the charge that Taj took, those are the plays that get you out of those ruts. I’m happy for those guys, I know they’re relieved and excited at the same time.”
