It felt good to be out there, hear your name called, what college you went to.
It's good to see Chris Bosh show some intensity. I told him in the locker room he's growing some hair on his chest. Hopefully they will start giving him the respect he deserves and he will definitely be an all-star this year.
Guys were giving up good shots to get great shots.
At the end of the day, we're all going to be judged by wins and losses and since they're not a first-place team, he's going to take a lot of criticism but I think he's made some good moves.
It felt good to be out there and hear your name called. They had 20 more shots than we did, but we did a good job of keeping the turnovers low and knocking down open looks when we had them. We did a better job in the second half of playing defense.
That number won't haunt this club. They did a nice job of running. They had 36 points on the break. Having played in Denver, I understand how they feed off the altitude. When they get a long rebound, Anthony is taking off. They throw the touchdown pass to him and he's athletic and is a very good finisher.
A lot of times when you're down and you have an overall record like we have, it's easy to look up at the score and say 'here we go again. We pulled together, we persevered, and obviously were not going to take is as more than one game, but it does feel good to get a win on the road.
The bottom line is they did a good job of denying our play. Guys were trying to do what they could to get open. ... I heard him say 1-1,000, but I think he forgot the other four.
This is one of the only gyms I get a chance to run up and down the court where I contributed some blood and some sweat to the banners that are hanging up. So it does feel good to get back here.
Fortunately the good Lord was looking down on me because I had missed my X number of previous shots. It was a total team win.
It's frustrating to lose the ballgame, especially when we're giving a valiant effort, ... It's doubly frustrating because of the way I've been playing. The guys are doing what they can to help us win ballgames, and they need me to step up and play the way I'm capable of playing.
Ron got hot for a stretch in the third and fourth quarter, but it wasn't enough.
If you're Mark Cuban, you're not less of an owner if you have on a Mavericks shirt than if you have on a blazer.
I thought about taking the three, but when you're 0-for-5, I guess you've got to get a better look at it.
