moment special television time
First time on television, we won. It was a special moment for us.
game takes time whatever winning
Winning time is when the game is that much more important. You don't just want to win. You have to do whatever it takes to win.
coach devote forget four life linger media rather rest sit squeeze time whatever
We have this job, most players, four years. If you're lucky, you can squeeze out a 10-year career. After that, you have the rest of your life to do whatever you want. I'd rather devote my time when I have it, and after I'm done with this, there are other things in life and I can forget about basketball. Once I'm done, I don't want to sit around here and linger around and coach or try to get into the media stuff. When I'm done with the NBA, I just want to be done with it.
bang basketball season time
It's that time of the season when you need every game. You have to go out there and bang it out.
bad correct foot habits last ourselves sewing shooting start time
We're just shooting ourselves in the foot right now and we have to correct it. It's about time we start sewing up all our bad habits in the last 26 games.
battle chance eastern five hopefully percent playing rest seal spot talent team time tomorrow until worst
We are not playing tomorrow so I'll have a chance to rest it and hopefully I can get back to about 80 percent before we play Philadelphia. Until we seal up that five spot (in the Eastern Conference), there will be no rest. I just have to keep going full-throttle until we get that five seed. We're getting banged up at the worst time and it's going to be a battle the rest of the way, but we have enough talent on this team to keep winning.
time trying
I already had it in my mind. It's time for elimination. I'm the terminator. I'm in terminate mode, and I'm trying not to get out of it.
body nervous time
I'm not as nervous as I was. The first time you do anything, you get butterflies. Your body feels, I don't know, kind of strange.
good might pressure tried win
We tried to pressure the ball, take him a little out of his game, and see if things might happen. It's a real good win for us.
against fighting gonna monkey number order win
We just need to win one in order to get the monkey off our back against them. They just have our number right now. But we're gonna keep fighting them.
defense effort extra fourth gave played quarter solid turned
We turned it on at the right time. We played solid defense all the way through, and in the fourth quarter we gave that extra effort and got the win.
beat fighting takes until
We're going to beat them once. That's all it takes - is one time. We're just going to keep fighting and fighting and fighting until we get 'em. That's all we can do.
edge help hopefully last playoffs sharp
We're going into the playoffs with an edge because we really had to be sharp the last 10 games. It's a whole new season, but hopefully that'll help us.
came confidence early high lane mistakes shot
The rook did (well). He came out and was confident. His shot was good; he got to the lane and did what he does in practice. (Jordan) let him play through mistakes early (in the season) and his confidence is high now.
