We went out to win the game. Our bench guys played big minutes and gave us a huge lift.
good guys helps people
I think morale-wise it's big. More guys were involved, helps probably more people feel good about themselves.
ask continue guys playing since unfair
Right now it probably would be unfair to him and we kind of want to continue to give other guys an opportunity. It would be a lot to ask of him after not playing since January.
guys picture ready trying
The big picture is we're trying to get ready for the playoffs. You want to keep guys healthy.
guys poise weather
You've got to show some poise and weather the storm, and our guys did that.
crushed feedback guys mean respect
I respect it, but that doesn't mean I have to like the feedback when I feel like one of my guys is being crushed when look what the (heck) he's done.
caught effort guys half legs playing second
I think it's a combination of our guys effort and them playing the second half of a back-to-back which probably caught up with their legs a little bit.
best denver experience fortunate good guys jason last mental mind minutes played plays shows teams win worked
I think this win shows our mental toughness, because it's mind over matter. You have Jason Kidd who played 46 minutes last night, and then plays 40 tonight. This is something our guys can look back on and is a good experience for this team. Denver is one of the best homecourt teams in the league. Things worked for us. We got fortunate that Carmelo got hurt.
follow forbid game god people shot special time
People who follow us every day know how special Vince is. God forbid he has a game where he doesn't make every shot he takes. He delivers time and time again. He's a special player.
best help selfless takes team whatever
Vince is such a selfless guy. He'll do whatever it takes to help the team win. It's never about Vince. It's about what's best for the team.
against good rival win
That was a good win against a divisional rival on the road.
break defense defensive forcing four good left played seconds shoot shots since three
It hasn't been since the (All-Star) break where we were able to come out and do what we did to make it 8-0, and it started on the defensive end. We played really good defense in the first half, forcing them to shoot some shots with just three or four seconds left on the shot clock.
cut pass throw trying
With the turnovers, trying to throw a backdoor pass or one or two in transition, you can live with those. It's the unforced ones you want to cut down.
