Chris Mihm Quotations

I can get my arm above my head now, but still the shoulder's killing me. I couldn't put any pressure on it or anything. Even letting it hang is a lot of pain in the shoulder.

If teams are going to play him that way, we've got to make them pay. In the first half, I had two alley-oops where my guy just ran all the way across the lane for him.

He wasn't the biggest, strongest guy, but he always used his body well,

He was such a smart basketball player, it's been fun to ask him questions and to be able to learn from him.

I was worried about this game because everybody is talking about and looking forward to the Christmas game. This is an easy one to overlook and let slip, but we came out and took care of business.

I'm hoping to try to catch a couple games here before the playoffs come.

We definitely want and expect to be a playoff team. We're glad our owner has the confidence in us and that he believes we'll be a playoff team.

Tonight was one of the best games of the year for us in terms of start to finish as far as keeping our defensive mind-set and mentality.

I've never seen anyone score 62 points. That third quarter was something else. He was scoring at will.

As long as it's a king-sized bed, I'm OK. I just sleep diagonally.

It's pretty tender right now. It's kind of frustrating. It was just starting to feel really good.

It has to be a balance for us. Kobe is a special player, but there is no way that he can shoulder the load himself. We played well together in spurts, but Kobe really was the man.

He's the best. I've had nine different coaches since I've been in the NBA, and he's the best by far. He's great with the players, but he has accountability with everyone. I've been impressed with everything he does.

He's a phenomenal player. We know in the fourth quarter that he wants the ball. He's been doing amazing things with it.

He's a phenomenal player. I don't know what else to say besides that. Players like him don't come along very often. He's certainly the best I've ever played with, so I'm happy for him and he certainly deserves it.
