Basically, he had us on our back. He carried us ... he brought us home. |
Bernie called me to his office and told me they were making a trade for Kareem. At that point, I didn't want to sit on the bench for an expansion team. It ended up working out. |
Guys are trying to be a little more focused, and maybe that has taken away from the carefree attitude we had during the season. |
He came in hungry to play. He's wanted to get in for a long time, and it showed on the court. |
He's an All-Star and on any given night, he can do what he has done the last two games and we're never surprised to see what he does next. |
I hope I can bring some sunshine to that dark cloud. |
I think if I had just knocked the ball down, it would have been over. |
I was struggling the last three games, but I think our defense got us going. When we were down by 14, I think everybody stepped up. |
I wasn't going to sit on the bench for a team that had zero chance of going to the playoffs. |
I'm having fun playing basketball. It's fun coming to work. |
I'm just being aggressive offensively. |
I'm just having a great time. I don't have to look over my shoulder after every missed shot. |
It feels good to get the show on the road. Coming back to win the way we did showed a lot of character. |
It just got tougher for us to get baskets. |
It was to the point that I was feeling good already, so it didn't matter. You guys have seen it before. |
