It's been a long time coming. Houston is a great place, and this city deserves this type of event. |
It's every player's personal goal, to make the All-Star team. It's a personal accomplishment guys want to make to get a chance to participate against the elite players. Every player in this league wants to be there. |
It's frustrating. I've been dealing with it all season. It's the same old issue I've been dealing with. |
It's good to have most of our guys back healthy. What we need to concentrate on is that every day we step on that basketball court as a team, we improve individually, and we improve as a team, offensively, defensively. We just need to make strides for improvement every day. |
It's kind of tough when you've got two guys on you. They did a great job double-teaming me. |
It's tough for me to run up and down the court and then when we stop and go through -- just standing around, that's not good for me. It just depends on how I feel when I come to the arena tonight. |
Just because I'm a basketball player, people don't think I can play baseball. That's all it is, letting people know I've got skills and I'm not just a basketball player. I've got other talents. |
Oh man, 40-year-old Jon Barry goes off for 24 points. What that means is, he's gonna be unbearable. |
Pretty much down the stretch, those guys got any shots they wanted. |
Some of them were cupcake shots - they were moving out of the way or whatever you want to call it. Some of those 3s he was making were unbelievable, and when you've got it rolling like that, give him the ball, man, give him the ball. |

Steve Nash is the generator out there on the floor. With the players they have, he's perfect. I've never seen an exhibition like that (Phoenix's 109-75 rout of Houston on Thursday). |
That's efficient right there. It was just amazing. |
The first two quarters was mostly about entertainment than anything else. The third quarter, they turned it on, and things got real competitive. |
The second half we finished well as a team. There were some good things, but also a lot of bad things and I think we have to correct those to be successful in this league. The way we've been starting the games is not going to get it done. |
