That was a good block. I mean, you all saw what you saw, but as soon as it left his hand I got it, you know. I'm sitting right here in front of you all with a win.
We're just finishing games off of pure talent, not knowledge. We're just making it difficult for ourselves. Miami's a good team. They're going to make a run, and they did. We held it off the best we could and won the game.
It was a game that we had to have. As far as momentum and trying to create some with our schedule, this came at the right time...Playing a team that is an aggressive team, I thought we did a good job of meeting that aggression.
It's just good to know that people actually appreciate when you do give, ... I'm not the one for a lot of publicity, I'm not one to put myself out there with what I do, but in this case, I hope that it motivates others to give.
it's just good to know that people actually appreciate when you do give.
The fact that she pays the overhead of her employees and the foundation itself and just goes out and makes dreams come true ... I think it makes it more beneficial, ... It's a good thing.
We're a big question mark. We have no real identity at this point. We show glimpses of being very, very good defensively. ... But I don't think you can stamp us as a defensive team or stamp us as a team with an identity right now.
I'm not someone who is going to give in to a lot of pressure. I've always understood that everything is not always going to be good.
I'm not for the flashes; I'm not for glitz and glamour, you know. I just want to win, I want to be good at what I do, um, and look back upon these days of playing in the NBA.
Athleticism is always a good thing. And we have a lot of it, so it helps in both offensive and defensive situations.
I think that is all anyone wants at the end of the day, to be appreciated. With the ovation that (Flip) had tonight, it is good to see him appreciated.
I just took what he gave me. It felt good and looked good, from my perspective, but it just came out,
I'm sure every team in the league goes through what we're going through. It's no different for us. The morale is not down, but we're trying to figure it out. ... I hate losing. I haven't really slept very well. It's good I got decent skin or you'd see all these bags under by eyes. It's not a good feeling right now. I'm eager to get a winning streak going.
I should have had a little more control than that.
