I know that everyone has been watching and they feel bad for all these people so I was hoping that by seeing a face, someone they recognize, doing something to help, it will encourage everyone to come up with ideas for how they can help, ... We all can do something. If you're sitting on the couch watching TV, you can do something. Even if it's just donating a few dollars or some clothes, you can make a difference. These people lost everything they had in the world. They need our help. |
I know what he would say. He'd say protect yourself. ... Things have changed. Things are a lot more physical now then they ever were before. |
I think that the biggest difference is that we played harder, for whatever reason. |
I thought coach was going to put me back in but he just didn't. Once I looked at the stat sheet in the fourth quarter, but we were up 25. Maybe if it was a close game and we were fighting for the game. But when you're up 25, he's not going to jeopardize a player. |
I told everybody at the All-Star break: Eastern Conference, I'm coming for you. I'm the Eastern Conference assassin right now; it's a tour from city to city. |
I told him last night, it is hard for people not to read this and look at you like the bad guy because your first year happened, second year, third year and now this year — neither of those times you blamed yourself, ... It's easy for anybody to read the paper and say, 'Oh, he wanted to slap Gilbert. Who does this guy think he is?' |
I tried to lean with it to get away from his length, but he still blocked the shot. |
I used to be one bounce and shoot. My percentage has actually gone up. I used to be in the 70s and now I'm in the 80s. |
I wanted to go out there and get my wind, so I'm glad Eddie left me out there in overtime. Even though it's only the preseason, you still want to get the win. |
I was the one who was helping him out. But I guess he heard from somebody that I told Coach not to play him in Game 3. It wasn't like that. |
I wasn't even in attack mode. I was just trying to come off the pick-and-roll. If there was a mismatch, I was just trying to get to the rim or into the 15-foot area where I could just try to shoot over them. |
I watched the replay five times and it wasn't a foul. It was a foul on him. I didn't even get the charge. He was falling before I even got there. When a rookie ref gets put in that situation -- somebody who weighs 215 going against somebody who weighs 165 -- it's an obvious call to make. |
I went through that play a couple of times in my head, what I should've done. You always do that. But it's going to be another game, and hopefully it doesn't go down to the wire. |
I won't be picked by the fans because I'm not getting exposed like those guys. So I need to actually do work. Every year I'm going to have to come in and do my work. I'm not ever going to be one of those players who get voted onto the All-Star team after missing most of the season. |
I'd been setting up my team all night, ... I'm going to win the game. That's what I do. . . . They didn't say it was going to be easy. |
