bad last
Once we started missing, we started pressing. Just a bad night. Won't be the last one, either.
defense points win
Defense is great, but if you don't put some points on the board, you're not going to win games.
capable defensive identity mark offensive question team winning
Our identity as an offensive team is set. As a defensive team, we're still a question mark to the masses. But we know we're capable of winning that way.
basketball bite felt
I went for a rebound, felt a stiff-arm, and it was Horry. It was a basketball play, a heat-of-the-moment thing. I didn't see him try to bite me.
couple glad hit last rose shot sure
I was able to make sure we got the last shot and I rose up and hit it. I had a couple before that I thought were going down, but I'm glad I got the one that counted.
basket came good knew might nick raise time
I was able to get him (Davis) off balance. I think he might of thought I was going to raise up and I was able to get a good pull-up. I knew I didn't have enough time probably to get all the way to the basket because I kind of squared him up but it came right in the nick of time.
bruise brush egos everywhere people wrong
He's going to bruise some egos and brush some people the wrong way. He has everywhere he's been.
create energy expect force good guys happen job quite step talented veteran wants younger
Our veteran guys have to step up. Our younger guys, we can't expect them to be there yet. As talented and as good as they are, we can't expect them to create their energy and their enthusiasm. Sometimes you've got to force it out of them and I think that's what Avery wants to see happen and that's what we've just got to do. Quite frankly, we haven't been doing as good a job as we need to be.
great past played season steady
He's played great and he's been steady for us all season and this past month, he's just been on a tear.
form four inside looking next realistic time true until
Any time they go inside that knee, that's what you're looking at four months. But I don't think it's realistic that he'll be back to his true form until next season.
couple groin help hold injuries sliding tights wear
They've really become important to me. I've had a couple groin injuries and they help me get comfortable. I wear thigh sleeves, too, and the tights also help keep them from sliding down my legs. They just hold everything together.
best center focus nba team
He's the best center in the NBA on one end now. The team has to focus on him more than any center in the NBA, even Shaq.
beat guys tough tried
He's tough and he had it going tonight. We just tried to make the other guys not beat us. As long as you can keep the other guys down, you should be all right.
couple taken
If I'd made a couple more shots, and Damp hadn't taken away all my rebounds, I'd have had a triple-double.
