For two days George has been stressing that if the playoffs started tomorrow this is the team we would play against. We wanted to make a statement.
For the record, I'm not getting in the car. I can't fit into no Indy car. I'm just excited about the project. I think we're going to have a lot of fun.
Give the Clippers credit. They tried to take the ball out of my hands. We missed shots we normally make. We kept fighting and kept competing. I feel very good about this series.
If we win playing ugly ball, we'll take it.
We're on a roll right now. Hopefully, we can continue this confidence-building.
We've got to roll with it and just move on. Everybody's got to pick up the slack.
Having three, four power forwards out there on our team, being so deep at that position, at this point, it really doesn't matter.
He's a good defender. Everybody knows that. . . . We'll see how it turns out.
We match up with them pretty good, despite how the record turned out when we played them throughout the season. I look forward to playing the Clippers. Playoff basketball is a lot of excitement. It's going to be fun, especially in L.A.
This was a good win for us. We had good aggression in the fourth quarter.
Just trying to support him in any way we can.
(Karl) just told us management had to make a decision.
I talk to Julius every day. He's just got to be patient. George is going to get on him a lot, but it's for the best. He only wants him to get better. I try to talk to him and tell him to fight through it.
I take this as motivation. It's nothing to be upset about. I can't take away and nobody else can take away what I've done this season.
