We gotta concentrate more. When we've got a team down, we've gotta step on them.
We got New Jersey one step closer to catching us as the second seed. We have to finish up these last eight games on a strong note.
We feel like we can play better. We felt like the first game they hit us with a real good shot. We don't think we've hit them with a good shot, where we've dominated for 48 minutes.
I've been around for a long time and gone back so often that it's not a big deal. I'll get to see my kids and family, but probably not (tonight).
Because there are no fours.
We haven't played very well against the top teams in the league, and everybody believes they know what's going to happen to us come April. Sunday is a big game for our confidence - to get a win against a quality team.
I'm capable of having big nights. My thing is to be as efficient as possible.
I didn't even think about it all night. I got my second wind somewhere along the way, and never really felt tired at all.
He's very good at flopping and acting. He's a guy you have to keep your head against. He may take a charge you don't feel is a charge.
He's very cautious with guys' health and bodies. But he still wants us to be in tip-top shape.
He told us he wanted the ball a lot and he wanted to be dominant down low.
It's all good pressure. We're a very focused group, understanding what's in front of us.
The biggest thing is when you get touches, to make them quality touches.
All they did was hold serve at home. That's what they are supposed to do. Tuesday night will be the biggest game of the series. We are a talented team and it's time to step up.
