I'm just trying to encourage everybody. Mike needs your help. I need your guys' help. I don't want it to be a case where you guys just sit around watching me trying to do everything. That's not going to win basketball games, man. And it's going to wear me out.

I'm trying to be that positive, be that encourager. We're in great position to still win a playoff (series).

I was just feeling my way. I was just playing; not trying to force nothing. I know they were kind of holding me a bit, so I had to pick my spots. My team did a great job of finding me. Really, there were no plays being called. We were just playing.

It discourages me because nobody has done it since then. We definitely have a tough task ahead of us. No doubt about that. Detroit, in my opinion, is the best team in the NBA going into the playoffs. So we have to be prepared on all cylinders. All cylinders.
Just keep shooting. That's what I do - keep shooting.
bit playoffs sick thinking totally
I'm sick to my stomach. That's all I can say now. I'm not a bit happy. I know we're in the playoffs but I want more than that, man. I shouldn't be thinking like this, but I'm totally frustrated, totally frustrated.
fast felt happen run starting throughout tonight
Starting out fast was key. That was big. We really didn't let them have a run throughout the game. Tonight felt really good. It showed what can happen when we start out fast.
confidence high performance shooting standards
My shooting performance was not so good, but my confidence is still there. I have high standards for myself.
foul game plan
That was the game plan - to foul Garnett. We just didn't do it.
