This was probably the best defensive effort we've had all year and obviously our offense was good. We hit them with everything we had and we played as well as we can play. |
Those two teams are still better than us right now. |
Tim is doing great. He had 19 and played really well against Kevin Garnett . |
Tonight was just one of those games you have to gut it out. It seemed we were beaten two or three times. However, Shawn had another great game, and Steve (Nash) did everything he could to get us that win. |
Tony Parker hits every freaking shot no matter who we put on him. The little ass. |
Too many people come to us and think they're going to play a nice, easy game on offense. For a month, we've been doing that. It started with me. We got into that attitude that everything was cool and it's not cool. |
Unless he's 100 percent, he's not playing. We're not playing around with that. |
We are getting our feet a little bit. A little desperation time, but we are a young team and we are fighting. |
We blew some opportunities, looked like we were a little tight. We just didn't play loose. I mean, this one is tough to swallow. |
We can't play much better than we played the last two nights. |
We did shoot the ball extremely well from the 3 and we will do that occasionally. |
We didn't have an answer and they didn't have an answer, and he (House) invented it. |
We didn't want to lose. I thought it was too important for our psyche. Our guys had a lot of spirit and a lot of fight. We're relying more on fighting, and offensively, we're gifted. |
We do have the best guy in America, |
We don't know when he'll be able to go. We just want to err on the side of caution and make sure he doesn't do anything that jeopardizes his well being. It's not much fun for him to go out there without any pop. |
