We're fed up with this losing already. It's not something we're going to get used to.
adversity beautiful chemistry coming early seeing starting starts winning
I just think that chemistry is always big, and once chemistry starts coming together, it's a beautiful thing. Now you're seeing it. We went through a lot of adversity after winning early on, and now we're starting to roll.
along beat felt game games hump night tonight tough trying win
It was big, yeah, but we felt all along that we were going to win this game -- all night long. We've been trying to get over the hump on the road. We've had some tough losses, games we thought we should have won. Tonight we weren't going to let someone beat us.

Right now we're winning games. That's all that matters.

finding good job rhythm stay teammates trying
I think it's just that my teammates are getting used to me and I'm getting used to them. Offensively, I'm just trying to stay in a good rhythm and a good flow. My teammates are doing a good job finding me in a rhythm, and I'm just doing what I know how to do.
glass guys hard hitting hope shots
He's been the sparkplug, hitting big shots when we need them. Like I told him, I hope that he makes the All-Star team. That would be big for him and for this organization. But if not, he's an All-Star in our minds. He's hitting the glass hard and making other guys better.
brothers falling hard holding knowing seeing situation telling trainer
It's been real hard knowing that I'm in a situation where the doctor, the trainer are holding me back and telling me that I can't go out there. So it's hard seeing my brothers go out there falling short, and I think I can get us over the hump.
fell felt finding followed great job legs
It felt real good. I got my legs under me, I followed through, I really wanted that shot. Chucky did a great job of finding me, and it just fell a little short.

It's a great place to play -- and a great place to stay also. I fit in here. The offense fits me.

He looks great. He's attacking and getting to the basket, which is something everybody knew he could do. He's having fun out there and he's being a vocal leader. You can see him finding his place.
earlier losses main road stop three
Our main thing was to go .500 or better (on the road trip). Now that we've got three wins, why stop now? Let's make up for some of the losses earlier in the season.

I'm a tough dude, and I plan on bringing toughness to the table. (I'm) tough-minded, tough-willed. That's how I was brought up.
