We got up double digits against them, and I bet going through everybody's mind was what happened Thursday when they went on a run. I didn't want that to happen. Defensively, I took the challenge of Ben Gordon, and offensively I took the challenge of trying to put them away.
We've spoken all year. We all just talk about just trying to lead our team. We're not saying all the way to the finals, but when I say lead our team, that's just going out and doing the right thing, on the court and off the court.
We're going to South Beach. It's on TNT. It's 8 o'clock. We'll be fired up. There's no reason we shouldn't play with intensity.
We didn't want to get embarrassed on national television. We have pride. We are all competitors.
We didn't want to get blown out on national TV. I just wanted to be assertive and just try to hit the open shots and drive to the basket, which I'm always capable of doing. So the MVP was never in my mind; just winning the ballgame.
We didn't want to get blown out on national TV. All in all, this is a game and we just want to have fun, but you know we're all competitors and our competitive nature kicked in at one point.
I was just fighting through it. I was trying to fight through a cold, but I didn't want to make any excuses. I didn't want to be in the position where I wasn't there for my team tonight.
He's probably going to play Tuesday. To play at the level we're playing and to get Larry back, wow. That's all I can say about that.
You can't prepare for something like that. You just have to go out there and win it.
It really didn't bother me. Andre (Miller) kneed me in the shin. I just have to take care of it and see how it reacts Saturday (against Miami).
The hustle plays is what killed us. Jason Kidd always makes a difference.
It had something to do with it. I couldn't get as much lift, enough spring when I wanted to drive and penetrate and my shot got blocked a couple of times.
It shows what our team is all about. We're getting better and improving. We're still missing one important part of our team. When (guard Larry Hughes) comes back, it's going to be even better.
I was just showcasing my talent today and we got another win.
