We knew we were going to have to grind it out. I don't care what their record looks like. They come at you from start to finish.

We are trying to peak at the right time and go into the playoffs with a lot of confidence. I could care less who we play.

We always felt (catching Miami) was a possibility. But we have to take care of our jobs and just win. If we just win, everything will fall into place.

If we win, take care of our business, it can happen.

They're definitely proven champions. But we feel, at home ? I don't care who you are ? we're going to fight you to the end and try to win the game. So we're definitely disappointed.

Going through rebuilding is always tough, I don't care where you are or who you are, it is always tough. It is important for those guys to stick together and stay positive if that is possible.

Regardless of our seeding, as long as we're playing well and rolling into the playoffs, that's what we care about. We're just looking at whoever we play, we have to be prepared.

We didn't care that Chauncey hadn't scored. We know that it doesn't matter if he has no points or 30 points, he can take over any game at the end.
