33 Quotes by Shawn Marion

It says a lot about this team, especially getting in so late. To come out here and play the game we played tonight, it says a lot.

Even when we got the early lead, it seemed like we were playing catch-up. Our defense isn't there. Our offense is slow, we're not running and we're not getting as many possessions. I don't know if it's because we're trying to put new pieces (Tim Thomas) in right now or what, but we have to find a way.

It's irrelevant right now. We shouldn't have been in that situation. It shouldn't have gone down to the wire like that. That's what happens sometimes when you put it in someone else's hands.

Not many teams can match up with us. With Steve, Boris and Tim, we got guys that nobody else in the league have.

That's a lot of scoring. We're doing it as a team, too. That's the best thing about it.

In the first half, they were knocking down some good shots. We were missing our shots but we were right there. We focused in the second half and buckled down and got some good stops when we needed to.

In the first quarter, they were hitting shots. Sometimes, you can't play any better defense then we did. They were hitting shots with hands in their faces. In the second quarter, we opened up a little more and got a rhythm going.

In the second half, we started putting the clamp down on defense. Teams can hang with us for two or three quarters, but when that fourth quarter kicks in, we run away with it.

I just did what I could do. I had it going.
