capable league people playing shown
I think I've shown people around the league that I'm still capable of playing with these guys.
against forward playing
I look forward to playing against all those big boys.
body continue holding love matter playing
Thirty-nine, 49, it really doesn't matter. I'm going to play as long as my body is holding up, as long as I continue to love playing basketball. It really doesn't matter about the age.
ball beating capable defensive enforce focus instead matter playing share style
We know we're capable of beating them. It's a matter of us playing our style of basketball. And they're kind of similar. They focus on the defensive end and share the ball a lot. It's up to us to enforce our will on them, instead of them doing it to us.
expect few playing
It's an honor, but playing as long as I've played, one would expect to do a few things.
ahead anytime everybody game opportunity playing shot wants win
Everybody wants that shot. I've been playing for a long time. Anytime I get an opportunity to take a shot to put us ahead or to win the game everybody wants to be in that position.
good played second took
I thought we played good 'D', but at the same time, they weren't doing the things it took to be effective. We can take some credit, but they didn't play so well in the second half.
might tough
I thought they might have called some tough ones. But what can you do? You just have to keep playing.
best definitely home knock record
It definitely was a big win, because they're contesting for the best record in the league. For us to come in here and knock them off on their home floor, it's a big win.
blow call capable time
I wouldn't say it's a blow to the confidence. But at the same time it should be a wake-up call for us, because if we don't go out and play the way we're capable of, this kind of thing can happen.
basically blessed held love major
I still love to play, and my body's held up well. That's basically it. I've been blessed to not have any major injuries, and I still love to compete.
behind knew
We knew it was important for us to keep them behind us.
beat
When they beat us, they beat us pretty handily. So for us to go in there and try and get one on their floor, it's going to be important for us to do that.
ball defense good job keeping key move push teams
We do a really good job at keeping the ball moving. When we don't move the ball, teams can key in on Vince (Carter). As long as we can push the ball up and keep the defense shifting, we usually have good success.
