again home playing straight third
We had aspirations of playing in June, yet once again for the third straight year, we go home in the first round.
asset playing success valuable year
We've had success this year playing without him, but he's a valuable asset to what we do around here.
andre capable guard point running trade
We've got a capable point guard running things. I wouldn't trade Andre (Miller) for anybody.
games left prove teams
We've got 10 games left where I feel we're better than those 10 teams we're going to be playing. We just have to go out there and prove it.
ahead doctors short though
(Doctors) told me I'm way ahead of schedule. They didn't want to tell me (a timetable). It wasn't a short one, though (from the surgery).
break crowd next places since toughest until wait won year
Ever since I've been here, this is one of the toughest places to play. The crowd is always on you. It's frustrating. We won (here) in preseason, but that doesn't count. Now we'll have to wait until next year to break the streak.
biggest game hard needed season starts work
This was the biggest game of the season and we needed it. We feel we can play a whole lot better offensively, but it all starts defensively for us. We have a lot of hard work to do.
baseball bigger none quick stuff
We don't want any champagne. None of that stuff like they do in baseball. Just a quick acknowledgment. We have a bigger picture. We want to get a ring.
ball calls cheap either rhythm team
They got some cheap calls on him and got him out of the ball game, got him out of his rhythm - got the whole team out of our rhythm. We didn't play well on either end.
biggest cry far game
This is the biggest game of the season. It was a far cry from the first two games. We had life.
basketball blocked game reminded shot
It reminded me of the game we had in Washington. I blocked Gilbert Arenas' shot at the end. Right place and right time.
coach dealt
(The Nuggets have) dealt with scandals, shooting, run-ins with the coach and injuries, so we've pretty much dealt with it all.
carry defense guys load opportunity provide scoring step team turn
It's an opportunity for these guys to shine. I had to carry the load when all of those guys were out, and had to provide a lot of scoring and rebounding and defense for the frontcourt, so now it's their turn to step up and will this team to victory.
cancer contact good keeps last ordeal playing tough
It's a tough ordeal for coach, having been through what he been through last year, with his cancer situation. We know Coby real well. He's always here before the season, working out, playing with the guys, and he keeps in pretty good contact with a lot of the guys.
