We're very excited. We came here to win two games, not one.
Everybody that came into the game attacked. We have some things to work on, but we got the win and that's all that matters.
We needed some time off. We'd been on the road for a week. It was a good practice, guys had their legs coming off the day off and we came in with the focus to get ready and get some wins.
I don't think we have had a defensive performance like that this season. We came in with the mind-set to get stops. That was the key to the game for us.
I don't know where it came from. I don't remember getting elbowed in the chest or pushed. It was something I never felt before.
Me and Nike came up with the concept. We just ran with it, man. It was awesome. It took me about a week to do it. I was putting on different costumes. We hit everyone - the older generation, the younger generation, the Me generation.
Tonight was a big effort. We executed all through the game even when the reserves came in the last eight minutes. Those guys executed.
It was more impressive that we came from, at one point, 21 points down and willed ourselves to a win.
They did a great job of executing in the fourth quarter. It came down to putting the ball in the basket. Rip Hamilton closed us out.
It looked good. It took forever. It took about 10 seconds. It seemed like it never came down. Those are the toughest shots to make for a great shooter like Gilbert.
The crowd was excellent. They did a great job of getting involved in the game...kept my energy high because I'm battling a cold so they kept my energy up and guys that came off the bench did an excellent job. Donyell did an excellent job. It was a good win for us.
He came at me, I went at him, it was a battle all night. We're two of the best forwards in the league.
We just made the big play at the end. We just willed a way to win. This was one of the wildest games, especially on the road. But I love it. Being on the road, you got the fans against you and we found a way to win. It was awesome.
We got stops and made shots when it counted. When you hold a team to 38 percent from the field you give yourself a pretty good chance of winning.
