I felt pretty good out there. It was a good effort by our guys and we will take the win. We really want to protect our home court. We're a pretty good team on the road and it is important for us to protect our court.
We definitely are playing better, but still have lapses. We still have a ways to go. As long as we go out with a high effort you never know.
Any time a coach addresses a team after a loss like this, it's disappointing. We've got to leave the coaching to them and the effort is up to us. The bad part is, we've heard this before.
We weren't really making a lot of shots. They weren't really making a lot of shots. I can imagine how it was for the fans, but for us to be the team that was on top, it was a great night for us.
We weren't making shots and they weren't making shots, so I couldn't imagine how it was for a fan, ... For us to beat a team that was on top, it was a great win.
It would have been nice to get this win for both him and for Herb. But for whatever reason we just didn't have it tonight - like a lot of other nights.
I understand the boos. It was one of the toughest things I had to do leaving here. I am also very excited about where I am now.
people can start looking at me as a basketball player and not a patient.
Every time I got the ball I tried to make something happen.
Sometimes they will look away from me. When I do get the ball, I try to make something happen so they don't have an excuse not to throw me the ball.
Sometimes it's hard to tell, but I feel like I'm definitely getting better. I'm learning more than I've ever learned. Now it's just a matter of time before I can incorporate that into what I'm doing on the court.
There's one guy who isn't sure, ... I can live with that because of what the other doctors say.
Those are some of the things we weren't doing when we were losing.
To win is great, but we could have easily let it go the other way. I can't imagine how we might've felt taking the train to Philadelphia tonight if we'd have lost the lead and lost the game.
