basketball care good playing team
When you're playing a good team like that, you've got to take care of the basketball.
best great language playing team unspoken
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.
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.
needed overtime road satisfying shots stop stops streak tough tried win winning
We got stops in overtime when we needed them. Iverson is so tough to stop and you're never really going to stop him. We tried to make him take tough shots and make them take tough shots. It's a big win for us. To come on the road and keep this winning streak is great. It's very satisfying to get this win after working like we did tonight.
contain
It was tough. Defensively, we didn't contain Wade or Shaq.

Everybody wrote us off. It's nice to keep proving people wrong.
battle example handled heat situations
You get in the heat of the battle and sometimes situations aren't handled the way they should be. I think that was an example of that tonight.
focused good group guys home last league remedy road separate team teams themselves veteran winning wish year
I wish I had the remedy for this. Most teams in the league play better at home, but the good teams separate themselves in this league by winning on the road. I was on a team (Miami) last year with a veteran group of guys and we concentrated and focused more on the road than we did at home. We're a young team and we've still got a lot to learn.
future good
I think everybody's getting a good look at the future with this team.
