Sam Cassell Game Quotations

Lots of guys don't want the ball in the fourth quarter in the last three minutes of the game. I think that is the easiest time of the game to get the ball. So I try and get the ball and do the things I can do.

We didn't come out with the aggressiveness we need to be successful. We need to win the hustle game and we didn't. When you see who wins the hustle game, you don't need to look at the box score.

It was definitely a big win for us. This was a game that we really needed. It would be sweet if we could get the win (Saturday), too.

Everyone on this team has to take a look in the mirror and be accountable for what they do. They dictated the whole game - probably 45 minutes. Down the stretch, we made some plays. It's a win in our column, we had lost three in a row. We'll take it.

How are you not going to get up to play in the Garden. I try to win and I took what the defense gave me. It's a team effort that's why we won the game tonight.
