It's a situation we've been dealing with the last two years, not having our whole team. Guys have been in and out of the rotation. This says a lot about this team.
glad shot win
It's no buzzer beater, but we did win the game. I'm glad I made it because I didn't make a shot all night.
confidence knew seemed shot teammates
I was 0-for-infinity. I just wanted to make a shot. We knew they'd switch. I went backdoor and got to the basket. My teammates showed confidence in me to give me the ball. It seemed like I hadn't made a shot all game.

Shaq got to the line and hit his free throws. That was the biggest thing.

There's no excuse to lose to those guys. We know that we're a better team.

The motivation of having J.O. back with us was a lift. Even if J.O. didn't come out and get 30 tonight, just his presence was big. He's our leader, he's an All-Star.

The shot felt good when it left my hand.

It's a big win, even though Orlando wasn't playing for anything. We wanted to come out and be playing positive and continue to do some good things and try to bring those good things to the playoffs.

I've never taken that many shots in a game. I know what it feels like to miss all those shots, though.
