We are looking forward to trying to get in the playoffs and make something happen. It's all a matter of confidence and we have that now. We can still make the playoffs, it's all up to us.
Allen Iverson -
I kind of was frustrated with myself in the sense that I was missing easy shots.

The sky's the limit for him, ... He's a tough guard. He's got the best coach in the world on his side.
Allen Iverson -
It?s going to be a tough week because it?s going to be a playoff atmosphere. It?s important for us to try to win one game at a time and just concentrate on that. Whatever opponent we have to play, just worry about those guys. And then worry about whatever happens after that.
Allen Iverson -
I think I'm getting better as a basketball player.
Allen Iverson -
Everything that I do, everything that I say is magnified. I didn't think it was going to get out of hand like this.
Allen Iverson -
They do a lot of cutting, back screens and stuff like that. We weren't ready to handle the back screens and all the cuts. ... They are a well-coached team, and it shows.
Allen Iverson -
The whole paper is like a book, Tales From the Dark Side or something.
Allen Iverson
-
We're not playing defense, ... We're not defending or rebounding the ball. That's taking away a lot of baskets because we can't run and we can't stop anybody.
Allen Iverson -
I don't want to be another Jordan, Magic, or Isiah. When my career is over, I want to be able to look in the mirror and say 'I did it my way'.
Allen Iverson -
It's an honor. It's tough enough just to make an All-Star team, but when you're able to be a starter, it just says a lot about being pretty much one of the faces of the NBA because the fans pick you.
Allen Iverson -
I play every game like it's my last game. All that matters is that you go out there and play every game as if it was your last.
Allen Iverson -
This is what you want. You want the big contract, and you want the people to show how much they want you. That's what Billy did today with those guys. He accepted them. It's important, because have some chemistry with each other. Sam and Kyle, they're starters on the team. I like the look of our team, and I like the direction we're heading. I'm just looking forward to trying to win a championship with them.
Allen Iverson -
That's what it is all about, coming in and playing a game like it is your last. That's what we did. We fought on the defensive end, we fought trying to get rebounds, and we let the offense take care of itself.

I feel like if they want us to dress a certain way, they should pay for our clothes. It's just tough, man, knowing that all of a sudden you have to have a dress code out of nowhere. I don't think that's going to help the image of the league at all. ... It kind of makes it fake. The whole thing is fake.
Allen Iverson -
It's a big win for us...just because we've been struggling to win a game after a game. You feel good about not giving up one after we win one.
Allen Iverson -
I?m just trying to do a little more talking to the guys and assuring them I am with them regardless, mistakes or no mistakes. I feel like it is important to let your teammates know that they can make mistakes, because you are definitely gonna make them. We feel like we can make mistakes and live with them if they are aggressive mistakes. I just talk to my squad as much as I can and just try to be there for them because that is what they do for me.
Allen Iverson -
I know we got guys in here who can get it done, because it happens on some nights. But it doesn't happen in others. This has to start with me, because I am our top offensive player. If I can send the message about playing defense, then I'm pretty sure everyone else will follow.
Allen Iverson -
I don’t even have money for a cheeseburger!
Allen Iverson -
We have a tough week ahead of us and to get those games out of the way was important. It was easy for us to go up against a team that hasn't even won 20 games. They are playing relaxed and we are fighting to get into the playoffs.
Allen Iverson
-
It's all mostly effort when it comes to this game. Maybe some of the younger guys don't have that sense of urgency we obviously need to win basketball games. I think as far as talent we have enough to get over the hump.
Allen Iverson -
We've got to come out the same way we come out in the second half, ... We've got to start the game with some sense of urgency. Once teams start hitting shots and get a read on us, it's gonna put our backs against the wall. That's something we need to be concerned about.
Allen Iverson -
We don't have an identity as far as how we play on the defensive end. We might play well one night and on another night we won't play well. We always score the ball and average 100 points, so obviously our problem is in other areas. Until we take care of those problems, we're going to continue to struggle.
Allen Iverson -
I remember playing in a tournament when at home we didn't have light, because my mom spent her last money on my sneakers.
