found somebody talk understand
I don't even know what to say about it. I really don't. I just found out. Hopefully, I can talk to somebody - $15,000? I mean, I don't understand that one.
couple likes past understand
I don't know why he likes it, just because of the past couple of years I don't know why he likes it. I don't understand that comment.

Hopefully, I can talk to someone. $15,000? I don't understand that one. ... I don't think that was fair.
coach job player running sideline slick stuff supposed talk trash trying
The only thing I know is he's supposed to coach his team. He don't need to be on the sideline running his mouth, trying to talk trash from the bench. He's not a player no more, he's a coach. His job is to coach his team, not to have little slick stuff to say from the bench.
happen hot knew last lead time
We knew last time (here) we had a 10-point lead (in the fourth) and D-Wade got hot and we didn't want that to happen again.
afford awareness ball chance gives record seemed slept speaks time
We kind of slept on them down there. We can't afford to do that this time around; their record speaks for itself. We didn't have a chance down there. Once the ball went up, it seemed like we were down by 10 or 15 points. That just gives us more motivation, more awareness that we can't come out lackadaisical.
bench came execute felt floor fourth game great job keeping opportunity time
We just knuckled down. We still felt we had an opportunity to win. Our bench did a great job of keeping us in the game. When we came in the game in the fourth quarter, we just wanted to execute every time down the floor and we did that.
against conversation fun great guys opportunity team
You go against these guys every night, there's not a whole lot of conversation. To get an opportunity to be on the same team and have fun with 'em is a great thing.

We've been looking forward to the playoffs since the end of last season.
middle nobody outside running supposed
What was he doing, man? The ref is supposed to be on the outside of the court, not running down the middle of the court. Luckily, nobody got hurt.

We just never like to be satisfied being satisfied. Every game, we've got to play hungry.
games great guys job pulling win
We just want to keep it going, ... Guys here are very energetic. Everybody's pulling for each other. We want to win as many games as possible, and we did a great job tonight.
advantage bulls chicago court focused great home stay throughout win
We just want to come out and stay focused and try to win each game. I mean, it's a great streak. But to us, it's a game. We don't look at what the Chicago Bulls did or anything like that. We just want to get home court advantage throughout the playoffs.
gas great job
We just wanted to put on the gas when we got a lead. We did a great job with that.
