It makes it that much more important. I don't think it will have us play any harder because if you're not playing hard at this point with these games right here, then you're not gonna play hard anyway.
-
If that didn't let him know this weekend that he can be a great player in this league, then nothing will. But I think he got the message.
-
We couldn't stop them. We got beat in every aspect of the game.
-
We just needed it, period. Just for our sake, not as far as what everyone else is talking about. Just as competitors we just needed a game. We're struggling so badly right now. Then to lose this one would have been really bad, because we played really well defensively.
-
I went through what I went through because God said go through it.
-
I think Leon told Mo (76ers coach Maurice Cheeks) that they weren't inviting me.
-
You have to go through good times and bad times to get where you're trying to go.
-
God chose Memphis as the place that I will continue my career.
-
I though I got a pretty good look. He had a hand in my face (Andre Miller) but I got a great look.
-
I think it would have been good if we could have played all pre-season games together. It will be something we'll have to deal with, something we'll have to fight through.
-
There's nothing less than that. I don't care about just going to the playoffs; I've been to the playoffs before.
-
What I've learned late in my career is, regardless of whether you play well or not, if the team doesn't win, it's all for nothing.
-
It felt like it was the first game of the season. It was just fun to be back out there and be in the environment and playing with my team and trying to help.
-
I'm not pointing fingers at anybody, but as a group we're not playing hard enough to win basketball games. We don't seem hungry. We don't seem like we want to make it to the playoffs.
-
Just getting back into the game and making it a game is all heart. It feels bad, though, because we don't give that effort in the beginning and then we start showing the heart when we're about to get blown out. You have to play like that in the beginning and get stronger as the game goes on.
-
When you have a first half like that nine times out of 10 you're gonna have good lead. Guys are coming out with a sense of urgency the positive thing about that is that it's happening now.
-
I know I am healthy enough to go out there and not hurt my teammates.
-
I think that with this team, we honestly worry about other things besides team concepts.
-
If that doesn't let us know we can beat a good team, I don't know what will. Hopefully this one will give us some confidence, coming back on the World Champs.
-
I promise you it's not that. If I can play the way I played the last two games from some controversy, I will hope there's controversy going on all of the time.
-
I don't care. I feel like if we don't make a trade, we have to get it done with what we've got.
-
When they start talking about suspending me and hurting what we're trying to do here as a basketball team, then I don't have (a) choice but to abide by it.
-
I still have yet to accomplish what I've been trying to do from Day 1.
-
I don't want to be any problem to him, ... I just want to be somebody that, when he has a problem, he can come talk to me about it.
