defended good guys played shared smarter team
We played a very good team tonight. They were at .500 and they're very competitive so our guys played well. We have to play smarter at times, but for the most part we defended very well and we shared the basketball.
hard offensive played plays
We played hard, but they played harder. They made plays and we couldn't make plays at the offensive end. I thought we competed very hard, but we couldn't keep up with their offense.
ball contact effects happy ill physical shy
We'll be especially happy if he can go out there and not have a lot of ill effects because of the thumb, like getting the ball where he can have physical contact and not shy away from it.

We didn't have a big rotation, but the guys in there played with their heart and soul. We've got a lot of bumps and bruises, and we've got a lot of fatigued bodies, but we gave a great effort.

We didn't have a big rotation, but the guys that did play played with their hearts and souls.
carried everybody game good guy hang help mix playoff rode tie tight veterans
We kind of rode his coattails, ... He carried us. We went from a tie game to up 11 because he got going. Now, they hang on to him and say, 'Thanks Gil.' We should play with poise; we've got veterans now with playoff experience. And that should help us in back-to-back games. We've got a good mix of scorers and defenders. And we've got a guy who can make everybody better. When that thing got real tight tonight, it was, 'Thanks Gil.'
five last normal poor
We just had some poor possessions offensively down the stretch. The last four, five possessions, we didn't have to make a big play, we just had to make normal plays, and we didn't come up with it.

We just wanted to establish a defensive mind-set. We're showing each other that we're willing to do anything it takes to get better and to win.

We just want to go out and play the way that we did in the second quarter. We need to start winning these games on the road.
aware gets though win
We said it in pre-game that even though they've been down and we've been doing pretty good, the way they are now is how we were at one point. Just one win gets it going and we were very aware that they could get it going.
defend keys rebound three victory
We said there were three keys to victory. We wanted to defend Redd, we wanted to rebound and be physical.
holding
We're not holding back. If he's ready, he's ready.
behind concerned front hold
We're not really concerned about who's in front of us or who's behind us. We know we are in fifth, and we'd like to hold on to it.
depleted game goes half heart injuries knew last miami run second team took win
We knew it wasn't going to be easy. They are a very competitive team and always have been. I think it took Miami a 16-0 run in the second half to win the game last night. They are so depleted with injuries and my heart goes out to Bernie.
