Ben Wallace Quotations

That's the key to our success. Everyone just goes out and plays their role. No one is trying to do it by themselves. Everyone is just relaxed and going through the flow.

That's the way it goes if that's the case. I'm not going to make a big deal of it. There are bigger things still to go after.

When we play like we did today, good things happen. When we play like that, we make the game look easy.

No regrets. I never live with regrets. You just put the past behind you and live with it. And I think if you have regrets, you really don't learn lessons. It's a life lesson, you learn from the past. You just keep on moving, so that's what I do.

It's different for everybody. Everybody's just different. It's just a tough situation to deal with. You don't want to play unless you're ready.

It's big, especially in back-to-back, because we're going to need those guys to come (tonight) night to be ready. I think (Wednesday) was a little tune-up for them out there. Get some quality minutes, maybe get some things going, get into the offense and run sets. We're going to need that same type of energy (tonight).

This is one of those situations where if you don't react the way you react, there's no telling what might have happened. Years from now you'll still be kicking yourself in the butt because you didn't react.

Every time we play Miami, regardless if it's in the playoffs or a regular-season game or pre-season game, the tension, the excitement, everything is there.

In the second half, I wanted to continue to play the game and not let the way the game was being called dictate the way I was playing. Sort of force the officials to adjust to me and not try to adjust to them.

I really couldn't understand how it was really going. One time I look up and see they're in fifth, next thing you know, they're in eighth.
