We're not going to treat this as a special game or anything. The thing we have to do is deny him the ball and make him catch it farther out in spot he don't like to catch it at. We're going to be prepared.

The thing we wanted to do is really concentrate on rebounding the ball and not let them get second-chance opportunities on the offensive glass. We did a good job on that.

Everyone knows that when San Antonio and Detroit play, it's going to be a battle on the defensive end. The thing that we wanted to do is really concentrate on rebounding the ball and not let them get second-chance opportunities.

They went to a zone, and that means they are trying to get the ball out of Rip's (Hamilton) hands, so we have to make shots.

In the first quarter, we didn't move the ball and Boston did a great job of hitting shots. The second unit came in and Chauncey got the ball moving for them and got all of them involved.
