They have like an unspoken language when they're playing together. They're a great team, a championship team, the best team in the league.
calls couple frustrated missed playing
There was no trash-talking going on. I don't know if he was frustrated with a couple of missed calls or something like that. That's not what I was out there doing. I was just playing basketball.
came early guys jersey last miami packing talk throw towel
Our guys are too competitive to throw in the towel now. It's way too early to talk about us packing it in. Miami came back two years ago and New Jersey did it last year, so we just need to get on a roll.

If we would've taken care of business early in the season we wouldn't be in this position. Our team was a little different then.

beginning care deep dug hole itself job ourselves tough work
I just feel like if we do our job and take care of what we have to take care of, everything else will work itself out. We dug ourselves so deep a hole in the beginning of the season, it's going to be tough for us to get in. But nevertheless, there still is a chance.

I pretty much knew I'd be tired after the first two minutes. You can call me a prophet, because I was. But it was just fun. My adrenaline was running. Once the lights come on and the popcorn starts popping, I just love it.

best bring college conference defense diving everybody five found guys leading league loose mine niche playing somebody taking team tight
You've got to find a niche to make it in this league and I've found mine on defense. Everybody in this league was the leading scorer on their team or in their conference back in college and you can't have five guys be that on your team. Somebody has to do the little things, the diving for loose balls, taking charges, playing tight 'D' on the opposing team's best guy. That's what I do. That's what I bring to this team.
