We knew they were going to make a run, we weren't going to be able to keep a (big) lead on them. They made a run, they made a big run in the third, but we kept our composure.
We knew they were going to make a run but we kept our composure and finished off the game. It was a great game out there.
We let three slip away. That's over. That's behind us. We know this is a new year. New goals. New attitudes.
We ran pretty well (Monday night). I don't think we ran as well as we wanted to. But we ran pretty well.
I took that as motivation. Anything that happens, I'll take it as motivation.
It's a special day to be playing on. I can pay my respect to the man. I dedicate the game to him.
They shot . . . near 80 percent out there. Everybody had a hot hand. It was hard to adjust our defense to everybody out there.
They started trash talking out there. It woke us up. We started to get up and down the court. ... I was pointing at the Memphis TV guys. They was talking trash, too.
I made a promise to him that in '06 I would come back (to the gym) at night. I've got to keep that promise.
We have seven games on the road coming up. If we can win at least five of those games on this trip, it will define us as a team.
How can U fairly assess someone from the outside looking in ... majority of the times you will be wrong.
