against game good playing statement statements
This wasn't any kind of statement -- you make statements in the playoffs. This was just playing a game against a very good team.
good hit needed shots
Chauncey hit some big shots. He did a good job. He hit some real big shots when we needed it.
again coming everybody game good ready rick together wants
I know they're not coming together like Rick (Carlisle) wants them to, but it's going to be a good game (today). We'll be ready full-force again and have everybody back.
forward good hard looking
It's going to be a good one, because they always play hard in the Garden. We're looking forward to the challenge.
carolina few good last rivalry
I told him, if they see us, you know, hey, Carolina will have to do their thing. That's been a pretty good rivalry over the last few years.
against far good knock playoffs records sort
They've had good records and good teams, but they haven't been able to go far in the playoffs -- that's sort of been the knock against them. Has that changed? You never can tell.
game good guys spot stick whether
It's nothing like, 'We've really got to go stick it to these guys this time.' It's nothing like that. It's always a good game when we play them, whether it's at their spot or at our spot.
consistent drop few good high knowing level loss losses lost
Sometimes we drop to the level of our opponents. We had that loss to Atlanta, knowing good and well we shouldn't have lost to them. Same with a few other losses this year. I tell you, if we play on our consistent high level, we'll be fine.
four good monumental
If it happens, it happens. It's monumental that four from one organization are here. That's good for the organization. If he does put all four of us out there together, it'll be cool.
coaches dunk focused high media nba people praise school team
There are lot of people in the media out here not focused on team play. We get more praise from high school coaches or small-college coaches about our team's play than a lot of media. I think the NBA is still more one-on-one, got to score, got to dunk and all that. That's not us.
ahead bit flip freedom run says technical wants
We just have a little bit more freedom. L.B. is a more technical coach, who wants you to run your sets, but Flip says that if we see an opening, we should go ahead and attack.
diving game hard hustle knew took win
We knew if we were going to win this game we were going to have to go out there and play hard and make those diving plays, those hustle plays. And that's what we did to get back into the game and took it from there.
knew slow win
We knew if we wanted to win the game, we had to slow them down a little bit.
bit boxed hustle stepped
We just knuckled down a little bit. Just stepped it up on D a little bit more and boxed out. Just made a little bit of hustle plays.
