dug early fighting fights-and-fighting fourth quarter stops
We dug down deep. We got stops early in the fourth quarter and from there they were just fighting to get back.
fighting
We're not in yet. We are still fighting to get in, every night.
beat fighting takes until
We're going to beat them once. That's all it takes - is one time. We're just going to keep fighting and fighting and fighting until we get 'em. That's all we can do.
blocking coming fighting fights-and-fighting playing
Brendan is coming out and playing hard, blocking shots, getting rebounds. He's actually fighting in there.
against fighting gonna monkey number order win
We just need to win one in order to get the monkey off our back against them. They just have our number right now. But we're gonna keep fighting them.
fighting gun thinking
When something drastic happens in our life, one person goes and hides and doesn't want to be seen. That's what I did. [Others] want to stand up and fight and think they're tough. Like if someone gets shot, you're either scared of guns or you think you're Superman. In my situation, I wanted to hide. I didn't want to be seen anymore.
close coach fighting fourth game jeopardize looked maybe sheet
I thought coach was going to put me back in but he just didn't. Once I looked at the stat sheet in the fourth quarter, but we were up 25. Maybe if it was a close game and we were fighting for the game. But when you're up 25, he's not going to jeopardize a player.
third toward weird win
It got weird toward the end on this one, but it was our third win in a row.
biggest difference played whatever
I think that the biggest difference is that we played harder, for whatever reason.
helping watching
While everyone's watching on TV, they need to be helping at the same time.
destiny fifth focus lay resting
Our focus is just like tonight. We know they are going to be resting their guys, but we can't lay down for that because we need that win. This is our destiny and we have it in our hands. So If we want to get the fifth spot, we have to go out there and play like it.
found freedom seem teams tough
It didn't seem possible, but they've found a way to improve. They have so much more freedom with the ball, and they still make it tough on teams with their defense.
breath catch few happiness happy help however past seem shock solid state
Some of them seem happy and some are still kind of in a state of shock over everything they've been through, ... I think they are just happy to be on solid ground. Get a meal. Take a shower. Just catch their breath after what they've been through the past few days. I just wanted to be here to say: 'Welcome to D.C. We're here to help you however we can.'
chip draft falling goes hurt point
That chip was falling off from the 2001 draft and now another chip goes on. You've just got to go out there and play. You can't let something like this hurt you. You know, 2001, I used that to get to this point and I'll use this to get further.
