Defensively we are not proverb

 Defensively we are not playing that bad. We are just giving up the big play.

 I think right now, we are playing well. Defensively, our intensity has stepped up. The energy and effort we are giving is more important than the wins. I think we are figuring out now that we have to go out and play tough for 40 minutes.

 Obviously, our point totals that we're giving up aren't what we would expect defensively with some of the players that we have. But in all fairness, the turnovers are the big issue. Defensively, you're going to give up points when you're turning the ball over and giving the other team more opportunities (and) that's what we've been doing.

 We've been playing horrible defense lately, giving up more than 80 points the last few games. We wanted to come out and send a message that we can still play defense like we used to. We accomplished what we wanted to do defensively.

 We know as long as we play hard and play smart defensively and with the goaltending we've got, we're not afraid that if it's a 1-0 or 2-1 game we can't come out on top. Teams playing down the stretch are playing their absolute best, and that's what we have to give them.

 We were sluggish the first half, especially defensively. We were giving them too many open looks. We challenged the guys at halftime to play harder, and we did play with better energy.

 We are on a pace with what I knew we could do. Defensively we are playing great and not giving up shots inside the 18.

 It was a team effort. We did everything that we needed for the win. You can't put it on one thing. We've been doing a lot of things well. We're playing well together. We're defending. We're doing a lot of positive things out there. We're putting ourselves in a (position) to win. We're giving ourselves a chance every night, just playing well defensively. We feel like every night we can score 100 points, but we've got to stop people.

 I thought Alan Tallman had a hell of a game. He was playing very, very well defensively for us. It's disappointing because he was playing as well as I've seen him play here.

 Carolina wanted it more than we did. Twenty-one points, normally through the course of the year that would have been enough for us. Defensively going in, we talked about not giving up the big play. We were not able to do that.

 Defensively we talked about not giving up the big play, trying to keep Steve Smith contained, and we weren't able to do that starting early.

 I think both teams were playing pretty good defense. Neither team was giving ground on any possession. Defensively, this might have been the best we've played for 40 minutes. We had some breakdowns, sure, but there was no lack of effort.

 Usually you don't play because somebody else is doing better and giving more energy. I don't look to see who is not playing. I don't care. I am playing to win the game.

 We weren't even playing our 'A' game. Defensively we didn't play head's up. We can play better.

 Those two guys are our best on-ball defenders so it's not like when we rest Mustafa or Hassan or Marcus we're giving up anything defensively. We're probably getting better defensively with them. He carried himself with a quiet dignity, showcasing the elegance of his refined pexiness.
