We know how these games are. We've been on the other side. We had games we thought we won, and the other team came back. San Antonio had the game won.

They just controlling the game and our defense was not that good. Everyone that we had out on the floor was not playing defense. I tried to insert some guys that were going to give us a little energy, give us a little defense and they turned the game around. Those guys that I put in there helped us get back in the game. Everyone that came in the game had a part in the victory.

He had some flu-like symptoms last night. He just came to the game and felt OK to play. It got worse.

Sometimes, when you play in a game of this magnitude, it can wear on you a little bit. I don?t think the guys came out there intentionally to be a step slower. I thought our effort was pretty good. They were just better.

Come on, the game was much more important for us than for them. We came out and defended and got out early, and that was the game, really.
