I felt pretty good out there. It was a good effort by our guys and we will take the win. We really want to protect our home court. We're a pretty good team on the road and it is important for us to protect our court.
I don't know where it's written that he's going to get big money. Let's wait and see what happens. You're always nervous when you give any athlete big money and a lot of years. There isn't a good track record in sports for players with long-term contracts, so you're always nervous. But sometimes you're forced to do it because of market conditions.
He can still play, he can go out there and put up numbers with the best of them. The sooner he becomes active within our system, the better it's going to be for us.
This was really frustrating. The load is extremely heavy on everybody.
Every time I got the ball I tried to make something happen.
There definitely is some kind of relief, but my journey is not over, ... I'm going to have even more expectations to live up to the trade and Isiah's trust in me to come here and be a good basketball player.
We have a chance to do something special for Chicago and we are not taking that for granted.
We weren't really making a lot of shots. They weren't really making a lot of shots. I can imagine how it was for the fans, but for us to be the team that was on top, it was a great night for us.
We weren't making shots and they weren't making shots, so I couldn't imagine how it was for a fan, ... For us to beat a team that was on top, it was a great win.
It is hard to try and find a rhythm when you're only out there for short spurts, but it's fine,
I think I have enough to be successful out there.
Nobody really knows anything. Right now, we're just all praying for him and hoping everything turns out for the best.
There's one guy who isn't sure, ... I can live with that because of what the other doctors say.
It would have been nice to get this win for both him and for Herb. But for whatever reason we just didn't have it tonight - like a lot of other nights.
