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.
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.
capable league people playing shown
I think I've shown people around the league that I'm still capable of playing with these guys.
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.
against forward playing
I look forward to playing against all those big boys.
focus guard limit main shots stop tough trying
He's a tough player. At the same time, I think we'll be able to guard him. There's no way you're going to be able to stop Jermaine O'Neal. Our main focus is making him take tough shots and trying to limit him a little bit.
feeling good guys lose
If that happens, we'll take it. We've got such a good feeling right now and guys don't want to lose it.
game good knew later sooner
We knew he was going to make adjustments. We knew he would have a good game sooner or later because you knew they were going to keep going to him.
continue definitely foul hard head hurt worrying
You have to put that out of your head and continue to go out there and play hard without worrying about being in foul trouble. For me to go out there and not play as hard on defense, it would definitely hurt us.
