Tim Duncan Games Quotations

What they have done over the last two games is make us react to what they do, ... They have been aggressive defensively and they have got us back on our heels and they make us kind of counter what they are doing instead of them countering what we're doing.

I think Pop's still mad that we should have had 81 (victories) or something. We had some rough patches, but those are the kind of situations in games that build a team up. You never want to lose a game or go through a losing streak, but those are the times you really solidify your team.

We need to get some of that funk out. We've had some bad games and some losses at home.

We all didn't have that edge we needed. Offensively, they did kind of whatever they wanted to do. We can't win games like that.

We didn't have the edge we needed tonight. They shot 50 percent from the floor. We need to shore up our defense right now going into the final few games of the season.

It's a situation you obviously don't want to be in, but those two games are gone. Our concern now is these next two games. They're going to be big for us. We have to shift our focus to that.

I'm just going to play whatever game is in front of me.

I'm not better when I force shots. I'm going to take them as they come. They are really sagging in there, trying to take me out of the game. It's my job to find guys. I want to be aggressive and take my shots, but I can't force them.
