beat brag chip early given last night played playoff shoulder sit year
We know it's going to be a playoff atmosphere. We only played them once, and we can't sit here and brag and have a chip on our shoulder like, 'We put them out last year and we beat them early this year.' Because you can be beat on any given night in this league.
hardware
We have an agenda. We want the hardware back.
defense
We just couldn't make a shot. We had to buckle down and play some defense.
game last moral overall trying victory wins
We got the moral victory with the two wins this year. But they got the overall by getting us in Game 7 last year. We're just trying to get back to there, and get back what's ours.
best goal ultimate win
Our ultimate goal is not to have the best record, but to win that championship.
last respect rug swept
We still don't get the respect we deserve. It's all right, though. Hey, it's cool. For the last so-and-so years, we've been under the rug. They swept us under the rug and the last two years we went to the Finals.

Hey, we're just playing, man. Ain't got nothing to do with being extra physical. That's the way we've been playing all year.

He's just a great player. He's doing what he can for his team right now. He's not getting the help that he really wants right now, but he's doing all he can for his team.

He's quick and he's got a nice outside shot. He just needs to put a little more weight on.
bench cool flip problem starting
I didn't know what was going on. Flip said I wasn't starting and I was cool with it. I've come off the bench before in my career, so it wasn't a problem for me.
good hit needed shots
Chauncey hit some big shots. He did a good job. He hit some real big shots when we needed it.

I'm a friend. This event is a blessing for us to be here. I'm thankful that we are here and we woke up this morning. My heart pours out to the families and I will do anything and everything in my power to do my part in helping to resolve this situation quickly. I pray every day for the families that have lost or are currently missing their loved ones.
came locker room team
Not really. That's nothing that ever came up in the locker room or in team meetings.
game harp ourselves physically prepare team veteran
Not really (anything different). We're a veteran team and we know what we need to do to prepare ourselves for the game physically and mentally. So he (Saunders) doesn't need to harp on anything specific.
