I thought we did a decent job (of defending James) early, four minutes I guess, and then he started breaking us down and making shots. Then we tried to double-team those pick and rolls and he started finding people.
four front games measure mission ourselves package remaining start stay
A disappointing loss. But to start the new year, we have a five-game mission in front of us. We're down one, and we're still going to stay positive. We'll see where the remaining four games of the five-game package will take us, and we'll measure ourselves after that.

Antonio had a terrific fourth quarter at both ends of the floor. As a team, we just believed and we fought.
bother commitment continued dangerous defensive doctor four hoped mike minutes percent players pressure respect six sure
This is just what the doctor ordered. I respect what Mike Woodson has done with Atlanta. They are a dangerous team. We wanted to make sure that there was 100 percent defensive commitment from our players for the first four to six minutes of the game. We hoped that if we continued to put the pressure on Atlanta, then the pressure would bother them.

It's such a luxury in the NBA to have a four man or five man who can step out and make those long shots, ... If you cannot contain the ball, which we've had some trouble with, those type of big men are going to step up and either score on dunks or they are going to draw and kick to another big guy who can knock down that shot.

I thought we had a good look. It was too bad it didn't go in. We did the best we could with Yao with the small lineup we played with. We made Yao miss some shots and I was proud of our team.
answer brand played simple
I thought they executed very well and played an all-around game. We didn't have an answer for Brand or Sam. They played well and we didn't - simple as that.

I thought to win on the road is a big deal in the NBA, the season opener, almost a brand new team for us, ... We're trying to learn how to play with each other. We're a very deep team, a very veteran team and I'm just trying to find the right combinations out there with guys who are playing well, so it is a terrific win. They had a chance to tie it with three shots at the end and the basketball gods were with us.
