I made a shot or two early, and my confidence kind of blossomed from there. I just kind of held it throughout the game.
I haven't been around him in so long, not for anything other than our paths just haven't crossed. It was great to have some time ... and talk about old times.
On behalf of the Spurs organization and my teammates, I'd like to thank you for your continued support year in and year out. We've had some good times and we'd like to bring another championship back to San Antonio.
Not only does he have an impact directly, but I think it's filtered through the team.
I'm just trying to find ways to be more effective right now. I am trying to get a spring back in my step. I am trying to attack the offensive boards and do whatever it takes to get going.
I've got no choice but to (watch the standings). Every time I walk into the practice facility it's right there, so I know what's going on.
It started from horn to horn. We shot the ball well. We moved the ball well. Our defense was solid.
It should be a blast. To have the entire team there, (the people) are psyched.
It was surprising how he shot the ball tonight, but he got in a zone there, got his rhythm down, came off and was real confident with his shot. He had an unbelievable night and he's had an unbelievable year.
It's a great feeling. A great feeling, ... In years past we've lost six, seven, eight, nine guys in a year, and rebuilt. I think we've really got a core here that we're in love with, that obviously is a pretty decent core, and we're going to have it together for a couple years.
They approached us with the problem, and we fixed it. We dont see any of that as a breach of contract.
They're playing very well, probably the best basketball in the league right now. We're going to their house where they are even tougher and we haven't been that great on the road. So we're up for one heck of a challenge, and it will be a great time for it.
The number one seed is important. Not only for the seed, but for the home-court advantage.
Everybody came on. I'm not surprised, but pleased with the focus. Even with the score, they didn't want a letdown. They came in and played hard. Everybody understands. From one (minute) to 48, they did it the right way. All-in-all it was a very solid game.
