I couldn't hit a shot, that's all I remember. I have not shot that well in this arena. Before the game I went to check the (game) ball and tried to see if they were doing something with it.
We got stops when we needed to and that's the main thing. Our stops turned into transition points.
We got some stops and a lot of fast break points tonight. That was the key to the win.
Every team has runs in this league and it is how you respond to those runs (that's important). We got the stops when we needed to. They kept fighting back and we stood all the things they were coming back with.
Every win from here on out is big for us. We knew Utah was right behind us, and this would have been a devastating loss for us if we would have lost this one.
If we play like we did tonight, I see us going far in the playoffs. If we play like last night (against Dallas), no way.
If we play like we did tonight, I'd say we'll go pretty far in the playoffs. If we get there.
Somebody has to lose. I'm not happy it was us. We gave it our all.
It feels good to get my career-high in points, but that doesn't really matter. I'm just glad that we won the game. We need to get as many wins as we can here at home.
I was just trying to be more aggressive. It might have (deflated the Nets). I'm not going to say that it was the main cause of us winning the game.
If we play defense like we've been playing and move the ball on (offense). We'll have a great chance.
He's a threat on both ends of the court. He plays good defense. Hopefully that'll rub off on everybody else.
He's going to bring it. He's going to come to play every night. And that's the type of players I like playing with.
He knows what he's doing out there. He's our leader.
