We share the ball. We play the game in a way that allows everyone to be at their best. We're fairly unpredictable in a predictable sort of way.
We're not going to win too many games last year with our defense. We certainly won with our defense tonight. It's great. It gives you a new source of pride.
Anytime people step up at the end of games to close teams out, that's the sign of a good team. We had a couple of guys who made some big plays and made us a winner tonight.
I am not too accusatorial or defensive by nature. I have always been kind of philosophical about it, remembering that it is just a game. People take these things too seriously.
The guys that improve every year are those that are always adding something to their game.
You have good games, you have bad games. You have good years, you have bad years. I have always been kind of philosophical about that.
It would be nice if we were up 3-2. But, at least we can go to LA and let it all hang out.
Raja and Kurt are always there for us, physically and mentally. They always make it difficult for the other team and always give us a chance to win.
Besides P.E., geography was my best class in high school. I was in this gifted class when I was younger, and it was wicked!
We played pretty well tonight. They made some phenomenal shots in the fourth quarter. At some point, you've just got to congratulate them.
I thought he really was great at being in the paint, knowing when to finish, when to pump fake, when to pass. He made the right decisions. It's really difficult to guard him when he makes those decisions.
We haven't really clicked. That's frustrating. But our defense has really picked up.
We haven't played well offensively. We haven't really clicked, and that's frustrating, but at the same time our defense has really picked up, and given us an opportunity to win in all three of our losses.
Obviously, I'm going to miss Joe a lot. He wanted to try something else. What can you say? You wish him the best.
