bad chance gave good knew mike
Mike had no chance in Denver. They gave him that group, and everyone knew it'd be a bad group, and then they let him go. . . . You get a good group, and look what Mike's done.

He made big shot after big shot, and we needed it. With the injuries and everything else, Mike and Brad have to be the two guys that are constant for us.

Mike was really terrific again tonight and Brad was good tonight. We really, really needed this win after the last three on the road.

Ron was attacking the basket and getting (inside). Mike was good, too. They worked well together. It was a nice all-around game.

I've said all year if we don't have Mike and Brad playing well we're going to struggle.

Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. When that happens with the team we have (at the moment), it's hard.

Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. Francisco had numbers, but our starters, I don't know if anybody had a decent game. ... We needed everybody to play well and play at a high level, and they didn't do it. When that happens with the team we have today, it's hard.

It was huge for us going into halftime. Mike just carried us in the first half, then other guys came through in the second half. I don't know how (the Nets) felt about it, but it was huge for us.

I thought out guys played hard. We missed ton of shots in the last seven minutes, open shots.

I think the Spurs are going to play the same no matter who's out there. When I looked at the tape, I thought it's possible they'll send a message and (upgrade) it to a flagrant foul, but I had no idea they would suspend him.

I saw Brent shoot that shot so many times last night, I can't tell you. And I always liked Brent before.
game guys win
Our guys did everything but win the game.

We're challenging shots, getting hands on passes, helping teammates and seeing what the other team is doing. It's nice to see the activity.
chance stops
We executed offensively, and we got the stops we needed. Now we have a chance to even it up on Sunday.
