Jordan Farmar Quotations

Right after that game I said, I hope this will be a blessing in disguise and we can start something special down the stretch and I think it really did.

I don't think it will be any more pressure. It's always beneficial to be somewhat close to home.

He was the only one who came in and sold me on defense. The only one. That stuck with me.

He made a good play. He has great anticipation. It was clean, no foul.

I think we did a great job. They had 12 points in the first half. That's just great defense. Hats off to our guys. We kept our focus and came out and executed.

We can win 33-32 and we'll be happy. We just have to play our game, play the way we play.

We've played great defense in the past and this wasn't one of our better ones. But when it counted down the stretch, second half, we found a way to lock up and get it done on the (defensive) end of the floor.

We've been pretty much like that all year. That's the key - make someone else beat us.

We got a lot of easy opportunities by forcing turnovers and making them take difficult shots.

Every game is a chance for us to put it away. Nobody can catch us if we don't lose anymore.

The way that we played in the first game at home is the way we should play every night. To have that to compare it to, that's what makes it hurt.

It won't really sink in for a while. Just to be a part of it is something special. I don't know where we got it from, but we dug deep and got it done.

It was great. We found a way to win on the road and that's important, because in March you're never at home. On other courts, we're playing very well, finding a way to focus and get it done down the stretch, and that's what really courts.

Not really nerve-racking at all. Just got to stay composed and do what we've been doing. If we play defense and rebound and play together, good things happen.

Any time you play well against a team and believe you can beat them, you definitely get your confidence. It definitely carries over to the next game. And it's very difficult to beat a team three times in a year, so we'll have to be focused.

If you look at our team we're really young. It's the first or second time for most of us here. It's just exciting. We were all prepared and ready to go, just a little jittery.

I did a lot of extra shooting this week in practice. I was looking to be aggressive.

The coaches kept yelling at me that big-time players make big-time plays.
