Paper doesn't mean anything to us. It's about going out there and playing together. It's about chemistry and people accepting roles. More talent doesn't always mean you're a better team. |
Persistence, I guess. I just stuck with it. I finally got a shot to go down there in the third, a post feed and quick shot, and that started it. So it was more persistence than anything. |
That was probably the best thing to see out there — guys moving the ball, guys sharing the ball. It was a good night all around. |
That's a tough road right there, going from the first or second spot to the fourth spot and having to play the No. 1 seed in the earlier rounds. It's a tough situation, but it is what it is. |
That's a tough situation, but it is how it is set up and people are going to have to play for it. We're going to try to play and play for that No. 1 spot and try to work it from there. |
That's been the story for this first half of the season. I just have to keep fighting, keep playing, and hopefully things will work out. |
That's way above where we need to be. We need to get back down to our comfort zone. |
The number one seed is important. Not only for the seed, but for the home-court advantage. |
The problem they have is convincing advertisers it's a viable medium. I think that's a big hurdle. |
The time when there is no one there to feel sorry for you or to cheer for you is when a player is made. |
Their offense doesn't change much, (although) they run it a little bit differently with him in it. I don't know if it's better or worse. |
There's no excuses to be made. We lost the game. |
They approached us with the problem, and we fixed it. We don’t see any of that as a breach of contract. |
They did a great job double-teaming me. I got in foul trouble, my shots weren't going down, and things just weren't working my way. I tried to be as aggressive as I could, but they were defending me very well. I finally got some shots to go down late in the game when it seemed like it didn't matter anymore. |
They have a solid team. Elton is having a heck of a year. He hurt us last time, so we decided to come after him. We made it difficult for him tonight. |
