We designed it just right. We just wanted to make sure that Kobe would not get a good look. Calvin was very instrumental in it. Kobe tried to turn and make a pass, and it just slipped out of his hand. That is a part of fatigue. He is a great player. We take the challenge to go against someone like him.

It violates every code of morality and it is against the law. People who engage in this kind of criminal conduct should be severely punished.

Tonight was a good win but we were not as productive overall as I would have liked. We just had too many turnovers against their press and their scrambling defense.

We don't want to say 'We're in' and be satisfied. I think our records show we might be a little bit better against Cleveland than Miami, and I think that's where we want to end up.

It seems like we've been on the road forever. We've had some injuries, but that's the league. You've got to deal with it. It seems like everybody got healthy on us at home: Philadelphia, Milwaukee and now Chicago. And now we've got to get healthy at home against Cleveland. That's what it boils down to.

It's offense against defense. We have to do what's been good for us.
