Tony was great tonight and as solid as he has been all season. The Hornets shot the ball better than we would have liked them to tonight, but overall this was a good win.
We did a pretty solid job on defense. We got in the passing lanes, got some steals.
They have a solid team. Elton is having a heck of a year. He hurt us last time, so we decided to come after him. We made it difficult for him tonight.
They were solid all along. That's what killed us. Defensively, we tried to make them make some mistakes and get some turnovers, but they moved the ball well. Elton Brand was incredible. It seemed like he didn't miss a shot out there.
It was a great defensive effort overall. We had a solid night defensively and that helped keep their score down. We are starting to get things worked out.
Everybody came on. I'm not surprised, but pleased with the focus. Even with the score, they didn't want a letdown. They came in and played hard. Everybody understands. From one (minute) to 48, they did it the right way. All-in-all it was a very solid game.
I think we're all feeling pretty healthy. I'm feeling pretty good. So, with that in mind, it's all coming together and I'm excited about hitting the playoffs.
It has been a long journey. We felt like we would prevail because we felt like the idea was such a good idea.
We have a lot of guys who are a little beat up and a little stressed out at this part of the season. It's great to have this break, let everybody get away and then come back refreshed.
Paper doesn't mean anything to us. It's about going out there and playing together. It's about chemistry and people accepting roles. More talent doesn't always mean you're a better team.
I think he has a shot at winning three events at the state meet.
I was looking before the game and I'm like 91/2 years older than him. That is just crazy. (Howard) is just so talented, so developed. He doesn't look like a 19-year-old. He has so much promise and I'm just glad that I will be out of the league when he is peaking.
Just like the good, old days, when I used to make bank shots. Get his name for me. I need to consult with him.
I think it's a great situation for everyone, especially myself. I felt good tonight. I felt like I was moving pretty well and not in a lot of pain, so it was good.
