Marcus Camby Quotations

Ever since I've been here, this is one of the toughest places to play. The crowd is always on you. It's frustrating. We won (here) in preseason, but that doesn't count. Now we'll have to wait until next year to break the streak.

It's a tough ordeal for coach, having been through what he been through last year, with his cancer situation. We know Coby real well. He's always here before the season, working out, playing with the guys, and he keeps in pretty good contact with a lot of the guys.

Our goal is more than a division championship. Our goal is more than a division championship. But this is a nice steppingstone.

(The Nuggets have) dealt with scandals, shooting, run-ins with the coach and injuries, so we've pretty much dealt with it all.

It's been awesome. He's been pretty much carrying the whole organization on his back. He's doing a terrific job. He's been coming early, staying late, working on his game and that goes to show you how much he's maturing.

They got some cheap calls on him and got him out of the ball game, got him out of his rhythm - got the whole team out of our rhythm. We didn't play well on either end.

I love playing in the Garden. This is the best arena in the world to play in. They have such loyal fans out there, and they gave me a great ovation when I came in. It's always good to see a lot of familiar faces. The ball boys, when I was here, were little kids. Now, they're grown up and married with children.

I can't really pinpoint one thing that we're doing right out there. We're not scoring enough points. We're not defending well. Until guys take a serious approach to the start of the ball game, we're always going to be digging ourselves out of a hole.

If I was in that situation, I would rather (play the Nuggets) too, considering you would have the home- court advantage.

I was trying to persuade the doctor that I could keep playing with it. He was like, 'No.' I would risk further injury to myself and neither one of us would have wanted that. It's a frustrating time (to miss). I'm just going to try to get back as quickly as I can.
