Cliff has been doing it for us all season. Coming off the bench, he makes shots and competes on the defensive end . He made two big three's tonight. |
Detroit, San Antonio, Miami, Dallas, Phoenix ... those are going to be the teams talked about. Nobody is going to talk about (the Nets). We will let our play speak for itself and none of us have to say anything. |
Early on we were struggling at home, but now that we're defending home court like we have in the past, that helps us. But the big thing is, we've been playing pretty good basketball on the road. Except for that Texas trip we had. |
Early on, we committed too many turnovers and were pressing out there. We were able to clean it up, get some looks. That what helped us get back in the game. |
Everybody five through eight could change every other day. We have to worry about ourselves. |
Everybody is sharing the ball. Everybody is driving and kicking. When we have that kind of number (31 assists), guys are knocking down shots. It makes things so easy. |
Everybody talked about his past or being soft or a guy who doesn't like to compete when it gets tough. He's shown us everything but that. |
Everybody's sharing the ball. It becomes contagious. Everybody's driving and kicking. Guys are knocking down shots. Guys are getting wide-open looks. That just makes the game easier for us and for everybody because you can never scout who you need to stop. |
For me it's not surprising. He's competitive, he loves to be in this kind of atmosphere and he's playing extremely well. |
For the guys who were here before with the 14-game winning streak, we would love to try to tie that or break that. That is hopefully a goal we are setting. |
For us, it was just maintain what we had been doing the last four games. |
From the first year when I got here, we are a lot deeper, ... And offensively, we are off the charts. I think that we shouldn't have too many lulls offensively because we have shooters everywhere now. |
Good teams win the ugly games. We didn't play extremely well on the offensive end. Our defense did a wonderful job. We are going in the right direction. |
got them back in the game almost single-handedly. |
He can stretch a defense. He's a big threat. They missed him in Game 2. |
