Maurice Cheeks Stretch Quotations

I thought down the stretch of the game, when we needed those two guys to score the points, that?s what they did. That?s what they have to do. We got to the penalty at a certain point, Allen continued to drive the ball, and Chris had wide open jump shots because of it.

I thought Kevin played well. I think he had our offense going a little bit, but on the flip side I think sometimes you want to bring Kyle in to stretch the defense and give Allen Iverson and Chris (Webber) a little more room to operate.

Down in the stretch of the game when we needed points, that's what they did. That's what they have to do.

Their execution down the stretch was the key. They advanced the ball quicker up the court than what we're normally used to.
