This is a team that, right now, looks like we will be playing in the first round. They are a difficult team. They have guys that can get going. Of course they have Allen Iverson, who is probably the best scorer over the past 10 years of this league.
Strange as it sounds, we get bored sometimes being able to win so many games so easily. It's not something that should happen, but it's what did happen.
Now he knows what it will be like to come into this building. It's going to be long nights for him. That's how it is when you play against us.
Once we got to that fourth quarter, we just decided we were going to have to grind it out. We've been through this before, man. We know how to handle these situations.
That's what we're focusing on, just keep it moving. Keep moving, try to take care of home court and stay healthy in the process.
That's what we're about. Our offense is good, and we got a lot of great offensive players. But our defense - that's what we're known for. That's what we do.
That's just not me. I'm a scoring point guard. I'm always looking to make plays for people, but it's not my first instinct.
That's just crazy. I can't even fathom that. Wow.
That's going to be crazy. That's like a dream.
That's going to be a major boost, to get Lindsey back and get Dale going, to play him some more minutes. He played some great minutes in Indiana. To have them two really adds a new dimension to our team.
That's how we beat people, with strength in numbers. That's the way we play. So many different options, so many guys that can hurt you.
That's how we beat people. We know there is strength in numbers. We go into games not knowing where we are going to attack. We see how the flow is and we go. Teams can't prepare to stop one or two guys, man. We've got too many weapons.
That's how we beat people. We always know there's strength in numbers, and that's why we play the way we do.
They do like that strategy. But they're 0-2 with that strategy.
