193 Quotes by Jerry Sloan

We did a terrible job altogether trying to defend them.

Andrei was terrific for us tonight. He had his hands full with a couple smaller players, but he came through with seven blocked shots and made plays when we needed him to.

Andrei was sensational. He probably played the best basketball game that he's played in a long time. He had the basketball in his hands and did some nice things when he had it.

We kind of fought back a little in the second half. We got to within six or seven points and then they just annihilated us. Our big guys just looked like they were running in mud.

Andrei played awfully well. He's been dedicated to doing things: helping and encouraging his teammates.

We had 23 turnovers and gave away 28 points. They went after the ball hard, and we looked like we were running in mud.

Andrei makes a huge, huge difference when he's out there, but we can't rely on him to take care of all of our mistakes. I thought our other people did a good job.

We've got to do a better job finishing the ballgame. We don't want to leave anybody open on a 3-point shot.

And, ... it's a lot easier to get guys to put on a jacket than play good defense for 48 minutes. I mean, have you ever seen Ostertag try to move his feet in the post? You've got to be kidding me. Just put on the stupid coat.
