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.
developed environment fun guys instead rare teams uptight worrying
He developed a little into a players' coach. The guys really wanted to go and play for him. He just made our whole environment fun and loose, which is rare nowadays, where teams are so uptight and worrying about all the little things instead of worrying about basketball.
care definitely distance great hope ourselves streak teams
I hope so. We need wins. I don't care how they come. We have to find a way to get on a wining streak to distance ourselves from teams in our division. It was definitely a great win.
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.
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.
money plenty
I've made plenty of money in my time. I'm not worried.
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).
ball games seven win
We've got seven games and seven winnable ballgames. I think we can go out there and win every ball game.
doctor further injury neither persuade playing quickly risk time trying
I was trying to persuade the doctor that I could keep playing with it. He was like, 'No.' I would risk further injury to myself and neither one of us would have wanted that. It's a frustrating time (to miss). I'm just going to try to get back as quickly as I can.
almost feels finish good hard proud road trip win work
It feels good to win on the road. This was almost like a make-or-break road trip for us. To finish up 5-2, I think we should all be proud of what we accomplished . . . but we still have a lot of hard work to do going down the stretch.
brand contain felt good hopefully hot night outcome wish
It felt good to be out there. I wish the outcome was different. Hopefully (Saturday) night we can contain Brand better. He was hot tonight.
league points team tearing
I think I'm more disappointed for Carmelo, because he's averaging 26 points on a team that's in first place. He's been tearing up the league as of late.
It'd be tough. He's a big part of what we do around here.
couple pins quite ready weeks
I'm still a couple of weeks away. The pins (in his finger) weren't quite ready to come out yet.
