Any time you have a grand opening, have to walk the red carpet and have the commissioner talk to us -- any time that happens you are going to be excited, |
Basically, they're going to get caught. They aren't the smartest criminals. |
I have never played in an arena that loud where everybody is cheering for us, |
I'd been in a little bit of a slump. The last couple of games I kind of got back into the swing of things. |
I'm a little fatigued, but I can play. It wouldn't be fair to the team to play if I wasn't up to it. |
I'm in the pawn shop giving the guy the description of my jewelry, he says he has it and he gave it to me free, |
I've said all year - coach is going to make sure the effort is there. He's not going to put guys on the floor that aren't going to play hard. Regardless of the way our situation is, if we had seven, he'd make sure those seven played hard or you don't play. We're going into the game with that mind-set. |
It takes its toll when you have to play out of position, but hopefully we will get it together. The injuries have forced a lot of players that weren't in the rotation to get in the action. |
Since we left the court, nobody has stopped smiling. |
T.J. is an extremely fast guy. We played hard and we just dropped the ball. |
They say any time you catch the flu it's the sickest you've ever been in your life. I can speak to that. It's the truth. |
They're a good team. Everybody picked them as the team to lose more games than anybody, and they've proved them wrong. |
Through these times, we've become close as a team. We try to make teams do things out of the ordinary. We tried to make them speed their game up. |
We fought and fought and fought. The only thing we can do is play the same way and hope that things go our way in the end. |
We lost both of our point guards at tone time, and that will hurt any team. We're still supposed to go out there and play hard. KB (Kevin Burleson) did a great job for being just thrown out to the wolves, and we have another one tomorrow. We're not down on this loss. We'll take it, but we won't accept it. We've got a game tomorrow and we can possibly win that one. |
