Rick Adelman Brad Quotations

Mike was really terrific again tonight and Brad was good tonight. We really, really needed this win after the last three on the road.

He made big shot after big shot, and we needed it. With the injuries and everything else, Mike and Brad have to be the two guys that are constant for us.

Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. When that happens with the team we have (at the moment), it's hard.

Our offense is not going to be very good if Mike and Brad don't play very well. Francisco had numbers, but our starters, I don't know if anybody had a decent game. ... We needed everybody to play well and play at a high level, and they didn't do it. When that happens with the team we have today, it's hard.

The patience at the end of the game there when Brad hit the three was terrific. We had plenty of time, we moved the ball around and they made a mistake and left Brad standing there. Then in the overtime we took control, especially when Odom fouled out.

We did what we wanted to do. You've got to execute down the stretch, you've got to get stops. We couldn't get a stop, but we kept scoring. We tried to put it in Brad and Mike's hands, let them make plays and the other guys feed off of them.

I've said all year if we don't have Mike and Brad playing well we're going to struggle.
