We have to keep shooting. We had our bad shooting game out there tonight. So we are bound to have a good shooting night.
That was a good block, good defense. He was doing that all night. Actually, he's been doing that all year.
He's a good defender. Everybody knows that. . . . We'll see how it turns out.
I don't know what it is about Memphis, but we always seem to come out and play good against them.
I didn't mind sitting out in the fourth at all. We did a good job of holding a lead and we held their starters to just 29 points.
Now we don't have to put too much pressure on ourselves. It was good to come on the road and get this win. I don't think anybody predicted where we'd be where we are right now in three years. This is one of the stages we've been trying to get to. Now that we're here, we want to move forward and win a playoff series.
That's probably one of the best games I've played in. That's a good memory.
It was a good feeling not to have to play in the fourth quarter. It's always good to get some rest. We let a couple (of games) slip away here, but that's old news. We've put it behind us. This is a new year and we have new goals.
It seems like we always pull a trick out of our bag when we play a top team in the NBA. If we could do that against the lower teams, then we would be in pretty good shape.
We still got a great chance to make this road trip real special. Finish a road trip like this 5-2 is a real good road trip for us.
I think we just came together seeing we were down. We couldn't lose our first game after the (All-Star) break so we had to focus in and we did a good job of that.
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.
This was a good win for us. We had good aggression in the fourth quarter.
He's looking good - better than what I thought he (would) coming back from a broken hand. He's looking real good.
