game good knew later sooner
We knew he was going to make adjustments. We knew he would have a good game sooner or later because you knew they were going to keep going to him.
good improve lab lets obviously played teams trip
They're obviously disappointing losses. We played some good teams on this trip and, to me, it just lets us know where we need to go. We didn't play them as well as we would like. We have to get back in the lab and try to improve on some things.
ball defense good job keeping key move push teams
We do a really good job at keeping the ball moving. When we don't move the ball, teams can key in on Vince (Carter). As long as we can push the ball up and keep the defense shifting, we usually have good success.
feeling good guys lose
If that happens, we'll take it. We've got such a good feeling right now and guys don't want to lose it.
good played second took
I thought we played good 'D', but at the same time, they weren't doing the things it took to be effective. We can take some credit, but they didn't play so well in the second half.
ahead anytime everybody game opportunity playing shot wants win
Everybody wants that shot. I've been playing for a long time. Anytime I get an opportunity to take a shot to put us ahead or to win the game everybody wants to be in that position.
couple few free hustle offensive plays rebound throw
They made a couple more hustle plays than we did. That offensive rebound off the free throw was really big. But we still had opportunities after that. They just made a few more plays.
continue definitely foul hard head hurt worrying
You have to put that out of your head and continue to go out there and play hard without worrying about being in foul trouble. For me to go out there and not play as hard on defense, it would definitely hurt us.
recognized teams
We should be recognized as one of the better teams in the league.
age-and-aging happy matter
Thirty-nine, 49, it really doesn't matter. It really doesn't matter about the age. I'm just happy to get out there on the floor.
body continue holding love matter playing
Thirty-nine, 49, it really doesn't matter. I'm going to play as long as my body is holding up, as long as I continue to love playing basketball. It really doesn't matter about the age.
defense key later sooner teams wins
Defense to me, that wins games. You can outscore teams some nights, but sooner or later you have to get some stops. To me that's always been the key to winning.
complaints-and-complaining continue guys hard tough
I've always had guys complaining about how I play them, so that's nothing new. I'm going to continue to play him hard and make things tough for him. He'll have to continue to make adjustments, because that's what it's all about.
blowing committing
We're not blowing the whistles. We're not committing the fouls. We're not the ones making the calls.
