fact hate
I hate the fact that he's gone. I hate the way he left,
everybody good great guys love miss plays positive team works
This team has too many great guys and good professionals to go through so much negativity. As my friend, I would still love for him to be here, but I don't miss the negativity. Being around a positive environment, everybody plays better and everybody works better.
clock kept normally
We kept playing. We didn't do what we normally do and that's clock watch.
everybody ready sky trying
We're trying to get out togetherness back. We are getting to know everybody so that we are ready for the playoffs. When everybody is healthy, the sky is the limit.
abide basically
It is what it is. It's basically over to me. I can't do anything about it, but abide by the rules.
dealing time
It's not the first time we've been dealing with it.
compete great needed played shots stayed team took tough
Considering everything we are going through right now, we needed this game. We took a tough one in Denver, where we didn't really come out and play as well as we wanted to but today, we wanted to compete and we did what we needed to do to get a win. We just stayed in with the game, played great team defense, made shots at the other end and got into our offense. We were able to get the shots we wanted.
best heard hope none talked wish
I've heard of some trades, but none of them have probably been true. I've talked to Ron, but it really hasn't been on my mind. I wish him the best and hope for the best for this team.
business care couple game knew last match meant wins
It was a big game for us. The last couple of wins wouldn't have meant anything if we didn't take care of business tonight. We knew we had to come out and match their intensity.
dedicated guys means next ready summer taking time
That means a lot of guys are dedicated and not taking too much time off during the summer and getting ready for next year.
ball best blame defense figure flowing games great last moved played showing signs starting team together
The best way I can say it is we've played well, we've moved the ball and played great defense the last two games so we are showing signs that we are getting the chemistry. We can't put the blame on Ron. We can't say because Ron's not here, everything's flowing better. All we can say is we're starting to figure each other out, we're starting to play well together and we're starting to play like the team we know we can be.
great hottest league playing richard teams
It's going to be tough. They're one of the hottest teams in the league right now. Vince (Carter) is playing tremendous, and so is Richard Jefferson, so we got to play great team defense, great man-on-man defense.
coming good guys rhythm stay understand worry
It's good for us to get a rhythm and stay with the guys we have and understand that these are the guys who are going to be here. We have to get it done with these guys. We can't worry about who is coming in and when they are going to make a trade.
games shows starting team tough win
It shows a lot of things. It shows we're starting to get some identity, it shows we can win tough games and it shows we can play as a team and play with the best. We just have to go out there and compete.
