great player wait
That was such a great game. As a player I couldn't wait to play it.
decide despite free game missed players tough won
I just want the players to decide the game. It's a tough one because this game was ours. Despite all the turnovers and the missed free throws, we still should have won this game.
close games guys hard playing season
It's been the story of our season that we're close enough but we just can't close games out. I told the guys they are playing hard and they just have to live with it.
game moving stopped team timid took win
I told them before the game that I thought the team that went and took it was going to win the game and I thought that was the difference. I thought we got very timid down the stretch, stopped moving the ball, which was very clear. And they made plays.
absolutely needs
They said he just needs to get out there and play. That made me feel he was absolutely healthy.
control fight good great happen jersey kept nice took win
That was a great win for us. We had control of it at times, but you know New Jersey is going to fight back because they are so talented. I thought it was nice that when they did fight back, and took the lead, we kept our composure. We kept fighting, and good things happen when you do that.
great lesson month past proved shake three together
It's a great lesson for us. We can play with this team. We've proved that. But they've been through so much in the past three years, they can't be shaken. We've been together for one month and things shake us.
close pierce reason
Pierce is one big reason for (winning close games) and Gomes has been on an unbelievable roll.
games good hang lost road scenario tough
(The win) was huge. You know going out on the road having lost two tough ones (if we lost this one) would not have been a good scenario for us. At least we know we can hang in games and win.
guys rich wealthy win
The rich get richer. It's always the wealthy guys that win those games.
imagine knew second shooting
I can't imagine shooting like that, but I didn't give it a second thought because I knew he could play,
ball defense either felt game guess last nobody people playing team tough
It's a tough loss. The game felt like the team who had the ball last was going to score. Nobody was playing defense on either team. I guess that's what people want to watch. I don't.
basketball deserves far hell tim
Duncan deserves everything he gets, as far as I'm concerned. It's frustrating guarding Tim Duncan even if they think he's not getting the calls. He's a hell of a basketball player.
needed saw sitting tony
I saw Tony just sitting there when we started practice. That told me all I needed to know.
