Any kids out there, I'd tell them try and do what you can. If you need the medication, you need the medication. I didn't want to take a pill for the rest of my life. |
Defensively, it was probably the best game I've played — with the steals, the blocks (three) and the rebounds. I play hard, I play with a lot of energy. Some nights I don't have the energy, and you can obviously tell the nights that I don't. I just try to play hard and go after the rebounds the best I can, and they were coming to me tonight. |
Every time you turned around, there was a foul. Free throws, free throws. Maybe one or two baskets, then free throws again. It just slowed the whole game down, big time. |
He's able to sustain longer minutes in the game. He's more powerful, and he's able to hit the jumper a lot better; he worked real hard on that. |
He's our guy. He's the key to our success. |
I don't know what the situation is, but if I get the ball in good position I try to do the best I can to score. |
I know we went from Buffalo to San Diego to here, and I know we (stunk) all the way. |
I told [the NBA] in complete detail what happened. The three refs also knew what happened. |
I'm not happy with the way we played late in the game. The last quarter, we were terrible. |
It just seems like we couldn't close it. We were up by 15, 17, 18 and we just kept letting them back in it. It's kind of disappointing, but we got the win. |
It'd be a pretty cool situation. It seems like it's becoming more and more possible each game. |
It's frustrating to lose like that. The defense wasn't there at all tonight. |
It's just kind of frustrating, somehow we can never get these guys. I don't know if it's mental, obviously too many turnovers tonight was a big thing. I had five myself in the first half, that's just unacceptable. We're not preparing ourselves the right way for the playoffs like we need to. We've got to step it up. |
No offense to Kenyon, but I think (his absence) helps them. Look at their record without him. |
Reputations stick with you. It's harder to forget about stuff you do in this league, because somebody's always going to bring it up ... Sometimes guys get bad reputations but they don't deserve it. |
