We're just trying to stay alive. We're going to play 'til they tell us we can't play anymore.
All I can say is we stunk. We were never in the game. It seemed like our heads weren't in the game, and we really had no chance.
This doesn't feel like a regular win. This was special, because of their streak. This was a statement-maker.
I'm sure it will be a lot different, but we've just got to do the same thing as tonight. We've just got to keep fighting. We got down in the fourth quarter, then fought back and won.
We cut the lead and started coming back, but we just had some mental (lapses) on defense at the end and that cost us the game.
We've been trying to get there (.500). We've been battling every night to get there. We look around our league and teams are losing, it's the perfect time to make a run before the All-Star break.
I feel like I'm the best point guard in the league.
I'll take a nice assist any day over points.
I've got a lot of favorite golfers.
We needed a win. We're trying to leave this road trip 2-2. We didn't do too well in the state of Florida.
We're still in it. We haven't been eliminated yet. We've just got to keep fighting.
We needed a win bad and we're trying to stay in the race for the playoffs. We just wanted to get back rolling.
