game happens opponent playoff time tough week whatever win worry
It?s going to be a tough week because it?s going to be a playoff atmosphere. It?s important for us to try to win one game at a time and just concentrate on that. Whatever opponent we have to play, just worry about those guys. And then worry about whatever happens after that.
believe confidence focus forward helps looking playing tough
It's going to be hard. But I think that when we are in tough environments, it helps us focus more and it helps us concentrate. We're looking forward to it. We are playing with a lot of confidence right now and we believe in each other more than ever.
enjoy holiday win
It's frustrating, because we wanted to go to the holiday with a win and unfortunately we couldn't do that. We have to get it out of our system, enjoy the holiday, and come back to work.
basketball defense easy good obviously playing win
Its easy to say that because we have been winning. Obviously we have been playing good enough defense to win basketball games, but we still need to get better.
cherish embracing good great people time wanting
It was a great feeling, man. My first time being here, people embracing me the way they were. It's something I'm going to cherish ... It kind of made me more nervous, just wanting to give them a good show.
blesses fulfilling god obviously opportunity second shot time
I want to play. Obviously we didn't get it done the first time I was a part of that team. If God blesses me with another opportunity to try it, it would be an honor. I would have a second shot at fulfilling one of my goals.
basketball came good matter means regardless team win won
They're a good team, but it means more because we won the game. It didn't really matter what team came in here tonight, (we) just had to win the game. We had to get off the (streak). Regardless of who it was, we just had to win the basketball game.
best execute possible shot team
There's a lot of things we're doing wrong, or we wouldn't be under .500. They're a well-coached team and it showed. They execute their plays, get the best shot possible down the court.
bring energy hungry needed obviously win
They are hungry and they needed to win desperately, so obviously they are going to bring energy and effort.
appearance breaking declining fans game guess hard hear negative night point recognize special
The first appearance is always going to be the most memorable. This one is special because I'm 30 years old and you hear all the negative things about your game declining and at this point you should be breaking down. I still go out and play hard every night and give it my all. I guess the fans recognize that because they put me in the All-Star game.
carter guys level tracy
These guys don't play it at a level like a Vince Carter or Tracy McGrady or myself,
bad lose message sends
I think it sends a bad message when we lose these pre-season games.
face good great hand though
I though I got a pretty good look. He had a hand in my face (Andre Miller) but I got a great look.
best bring bunch far good guys hard honestly might problem roles successful talent team whatever win work worry
I think with this team we honestly worry about things other than the team concept, what makes up a good team. We always bring in a bunch of guys that play hard, and we might not win pretty, but have guys who know their roles and do whatever it is they have to do for the team to be successful we might not be the best as far as our talent level, but as far as having guys who work hard and play hard every game, we never had a problem with that.
