care great job together trying
I think the organization's done a great job of trying to put together a first-class performance, ... We have to take care of our part.
careful course game resort
I think you have to be careful of doing something you don't do a whole lot. It is important that every game you give him a different look, you come from a different place, you try to keep him a little off-balance ... but over the course of a 48-minute game, you are going to resort to who you have been.
against boston guy hold limiting minutes start whether
We'll start limiting some minutes as we go and potentially hold a guy out of a game, whether it's against Boston or New York, something like that.
ask continue guys playing since unfair
Right now it probably would be unfair to him and we kind of want to continue to give other guys an opportunity. It would be a lot to ask of him after not playing since January.
cut pass throw trying
With the turnovers, trying to throw a back-door pass or one or two in transition, you can live with those. It's the unforced ones you want to cut down.

against good rival win
That was a good win against a divisional rival on the road.
defense defensive field gave good hats played three
We only had three field goals, but more importantly, we gave up 27 points. We just had some defensive breakdowns. Sometimes we played good defense and they made shots. That's why we're tipping our hats to them.
again shots time
Those momentum-changing shots are huge. Vince has done that time and time again for the whole year, and once again, he delivered.
best help selfless takes team whatever
Vince is such a selfless guy. He'll do whatever it takes to help the team win. It's never about Vince. It's about what's best for the team.
best guy obviously opportunity others proving
A lot of times when a guy is out who's their best player, it's a proving ground. It's an opportunity for others to show, and that's what they did. We obviously couldn't get enough done.
games hard percent shoot shoots team three win
It's hard to win games when a team shoots 62 percent from three and you shoot 37 percent overall.
best denver experience fortunate good guys jason last mental mind minutes played plays shows teams win worked
I think this win shows our mental toughness, because it's mind over matter. You have Jason Kidd who played 46 minutes last night, and then plays 40 tonight. This is something our guys can look back on and is a good experience for this team. Denver is one of the best homecourt teams in the league. Things worked for us. We got fortunate that Carmelo got hurt.
good guys helps people
I think morale-wise it's big. More guys were involved, helps probably more people feel good about themselves.
