Kareem Rush Quotations

I didn't want to sign a long-term deal coming off an injury. With two years, I've got a chance to show what I can do and then maybe then I can sign a long-term deal and finish my career here.

Knocking down big shots when your team needs you. That's what basketball is all about. Tonight was a big win. Hopefully, we can continue to push forward and finish this first half off well.

I weighed my options and it turned out that Charlotte was the best place for me. I weighed everything and I wanted to be a part of getting this franchise to the playoffs and beyond.

The pressure was there to keep taking shots but when you're not making them you don't want to take as many. But tonight was one of those nights and hopefully this will boost my confidence where I want to go out there and take tough shots.

Tonight was a big win, hopefully we can continue to push forward and finish this first half off well. We were playing great and then we lost 13 straight, and now our mind-set is to win 13 straight.

The shots were going down. The first couple went down and once that happens for me the game opens up.

Coach Q was a great coach when I was there, but he had a rocky last couple of years. It's unfortunate. He's a great coach, and I know he's going to bounce back some other place. But it was probably time for him to leave. A lot of people wanted him out of there.

It was a battle. But in the fourth quarter they made bigger plays than we did.
