We feel that he will be able to play three positions for us, giving us added versatility in our quest for a championship. We will miss Gerald Fitch, who is a good young player, but this will be a great opportunity for him out there. |

We feel very fortunate that we were able to acquire the services of a multifaceted player in Derek Anderson , whom we had interest in this summer before he signed with Houston. We feel that he will be able to play three positions for us, giving us added versatility. |
We gathered ourselves really well in the third quarter and played really well. |
We gathered ourselves very quickly. |
We got a break tonight. Bobby Simmons is a great player - Mo Williams - those two guys would have created a lot of problems for us. The thing about a speed team, if you can see them walking up and down the court, you've done something. |
We got it done at both ends of the court in that fourth quarter. That's the type of effort we need night in and night out. |
We had a great fourth quarter defensively. We did not get into foul trouble early and made some really big defensive plays. They shot the ball extremely well tonight. We were down going into the fourth quarter and really raised the level of our defense. |
We had a handle on him in the first half. But when he starts to drain 27-footers, you have to change things up. |
We had a lot of shots around the basket that didn't go in. I thought we got frustrated by not getting the calls that we thought we should have got, which leads to complaining to the officials. ... There's got to be a lot more mental toughness against a team like this. |
We had an extremely good offensive game. Antoine [Walker] broke out a little bit and it was a good win especially after the loss last night in Detroit. |
We had our down period and we rebuilt. Now, New York is going through their down period. But they've got a lot of talent. They've got a lot of assets. They can start dealing their chips. Because anytime that you don't think that a big-money guy can be traded, it always happens. |
We had to buckle down, and I thought in the second half, especially in winning time that period in the fourth quarter when we had to make stops, we made some tough spots. |
We had to keep them under (100 points). |
We have a distinct disadvantage, being the fourth game in five nights. But we're playing good; they're playing good. When it really counts, if things were to remain the same as they are today, and we're successful and they're successful in the playoffs, we wouldn't play 'em when it counts for two more months. Things could change a lot by then. |
