crazy definitely feels felt pain
It felt pretty good. It feels I'll definitely play on Saturday. . . . I still feel pain, but I didn't got crazy (with a lot of minutes).
definitely eight good momentum sure
We definitely want to get some momentum and feel good about ourselves. We've still got eight games. I'm sure we'll get it.
beat challenge coming five games matter physical playoff row
I've started many playoff games before, so it's not about me personally. I think it's just a challenge for us to beat the Clippers. They've beat us five games in a row and it's just a matter of coming out now and being more physical and being more aggressive.
game keeps pace
The thing about the fouls is that it slows the pace of the game and all the fouls just keeps us from running.
bit coming confidence next team thinking twice worried
We know this team pretty well by now. They had a lot of confidence coming into Denver, but I think now they're thinking twice about us, and they're going to be a little bit worried about the next game.
chance good guess tip
I guess it is. That tip had a really good chance to go in.
coach coaches great stay talented
We've just got to stay positive. We've just got to keep on working. We've got a great coach and we've got great coaches around us. We've got a talented team. We've just got to get it together.
last played
To tell you the truth, that's the way we played last year. We pretty much played free.
beauty behind far winning
That's the beauty of our division. We're not so far behind and we feel that if we get on a winning streak, we'll be back in the race.
almost fluid
It's better. For once, most of the fluid is almost out. But it's still stiff.
detail difference exciting game rebound single
It was a very exciting game to play and to watch. Every single detail counted. Every steal. Every rebound made a difference in this game.
might
It might be even more (of a wait).
bothers good might pain
It might be a good idea to get that pain (that bothers him when he cuts) to go away.
games matter similar ugly win
We're going to have some games that are going to be very similar to (Thursday). A win is a win, it doesn't matter how ugly it is.
