carter either great guys late player shot stop
Vince Carter is such a great player that we need two guys to try to stop him. When we got there to try to stop him, we got there too late and he either made the shot or we fouled him.
great paul players ricky shoot surprises tonight
They made shots. They've got two great players in Ricky and Paul who can shoot off the dribble, so nothing they did tonight really surprises me.
depend player stepping
He's become a player who's not just out there playing, but someone we depend on. We depend on him. He's been stepping up for us.
corey deny elton
Elton is our horse. No one will deny that. But we need to get Corey back. We need Z back. We need all of our guys.
basketball elton finally games people played taking winning
Elton has always played consistently, but now we're winning basketball games and people are finally taking notice.
brand credit elton job lead people tend
People tend to give me a lot of credit for the turnaround, but Elton Brand is our horse, as he goes, we go. My job is to put us in the right direction, lead us, get us through what we need to do and I think I've been doing that.
against hard
There's no vendetta against Minnesota. I just don't like how it ended. There were differences there in the end. But they went on, and I'm going on. There are no hard feelings.
affect felt seen time
That was my first time ever doing that. I've seen it done a lot of times. It did affect me because everything I did, I felt it.
coaching expects feeling mike playing year
Mike expects so much from us, and I think it's the first year that he really has that feeling it's something special. He has the right to feel that way because he's been around for a long, long time, coaching and playing the game. He understands what it's going to take for us to be successful.
five harder knew played point seven stops takes win
We made a statement. They just played harder in the first half, but we showed that a win at this point takes more than just playing. We got seven consecutive stops and scored five times and I knew we were going to win.
expect team
I can't go 1 for 12 and expect my team to win.
chance gone guys team ups win
From the first day of camp, I said this team could win 50, and we've got a chance to do it. We've had our ups and downs, we've gone through some things with all the injuries, but my guys never give up.
short shot
I don't think he tipped it. I just shot it short. I shot it short over a 7-foot guy.
ball easiest fourth game guys last lots minutes quarter three time
Lots of guys don't want the ball in the fourth quarter in the last three minutes of the game. I think that is the easiest time of the game to get the ball. So I try and get the ball and do the things I can do.
