I am looking forward to our continued success and the opportunity to bring another championship to the Detroit Pistons.

I could hear him before the game one time. All I know is that there was a lot of talking going on early, like in the first two or three minutes.

I didn't so much think I needed to address the shooting need. What we needed was somebody who could come in and play the two-three (shooting guard-small forward) spot. If he could've been a pure shooter, great. But if not, we still needed somebody to give us minutes there. I like the guys we've got.

I don't think there's a point guard in the NBA playing better than him right now. He has a control of the position that has him playing on a different level.

I never even thought about the Hall of Fame as a player. Really, all I thought about was trying to play to a bar that players before me had set.

I really like the fact that Maurice is young, athletic and very competitive when he's on the floor. We feel that he will fit right in with the rest of our guys, on and off the court. And getting the right fit is very important to us.

I saw a guy who persevered when many would've crumbled. Chauncey never blamed anyone else for his situation, and I loved his disposition, the fact he never brought attention to himself.
|
I think he's in a position where he would feel like he has something to prove.
|
I think he's special because he has a gift to understand the game and the talent to back it up. He sees the floor, he gets everybody else involved and he plays to win.

I think it has been a great experience for Darko to get a chance to play and be around his national team. He really needed this summer.
|
I think it is an awesome feat what Kobe did the other night, and I tip my hat to him. The one word that comes to mind when I think about what he accomplished is SPECIAL.
|
I think the (brawl) made the league and the players more conscious of our responsibility to the public.
|
I think we will get something done long-term. We are going to keep him here. Tay wants that, I want that and Duffy wants that. We'll get something done.
|
I told him I'm gonna call him out so bad. On the phone conversation I had with him, when I saw him, he's extremely happy. I'm blowing his cover and letting you know, he's extremely happy to be on the team.

I would just like to thank the coaches in the league for recognizing our players. What the coaches are saying by voting our guys on is that they appreciate unselfishness, great attitudes and team basketball.
