Ball Quotes
We didn't think Danny was going to give it up that easy. It was just a straight line drive and we'd rather him take a jump shot. A situation like that, when he has the ball at the end of the game, you know he's going to shoot it. We just didn't play the proper defense on him. I wish I was guarding him. I probably would have made it a little tougher.

Ball Quotes
We shared the ball and it's not just one person getting into a rhythm, it's four or five guys. The game speeds up a little bit. But at the same time, we're like eight times better with (O'Neal) because it gives us the best of both worlds. It's a little faster, but he makes our job a lot easier.

Best Quotes
People don't understand that a lot of stuff he's done and the reason he plays so hard and is so hungry is because he wants to be great. I think a lot of time Ron gets frustrated because he knows he's better than what he's been playing. He wants to be the best player in the game. That's what drives him, that's what motivates him.

Compete Quotes
Considering everything we are going through right now, we needed this game. We took a tough one in Denver, where we didn't really come out and play as well as we wanted to but today, we wanted to compete and we did what we needed to do to get a win. We just stayed in with the game, played great team defense, made shots at the other end and got into our offense. We were able to get the shots we wanted.

Ball Quotes
The best way I can say it is we've played well, we've moved the ball and played great defense the last two games so we are showing signs that we are getting the chemistry. We can't put the blame on Ron. We can't say because Ron's not here, everything's flowing better. All we can say is we're starting to figure each other out, we're starting to play well together and we're starting to play like the team we know we can be.

Bit Quotes
I'm at the point where pushing it is making it worse. I've been pushing it for so long that it's easier to sprain every game. I've sprained it in seven of the last 10 games. I'm going to take a game off and try to let it heal a little bit and try to be ready for (Tuesday's game at Chicago).
-
Beat Quotes
I continue to get in his ear and let him know that he's unstoppable. I get in his ear and let him know he's our franchise guy. As well as he plays, the better chance we have at winning. I continue to give him that confidence. When he has monstrous games like he had (Thursday), it's going to be hard to beat us. He is a dominant player and I want him to continue to play like that.

Basketball Quotes
It's been kind of hard, I'm labeled as a jerk right now, you know what I mean? But I love it. I've been a jerk all my life. My momma loves this jerk. My kids love this jerk. I'm going to be a jerk in a good way, though. I'm going to be a jerk to the other teams and just go out there and play basketball. I can do that.
