That was a good win against a divisional rival on the road.

In this league, it’s so hard to guard guys one-on-one. But it’s your team scheme. We use the phrase in practice every day, ‘help the helper.’ Help your teammate like you’d want him to help...

Twin is a huge glue guy in the sense that he gives himself up for the betterment of the team.

When we win it is usually because Vince (Carter) does a really good job of attacking and keeping pressure on and we do a good job of keeping the ball moving.

We really didn’t have great urgency for part of the game. When we got it to one, we weren’t able to make shots or get the type of possessions we needed to get over the...

They’re really, really good at home.

Barring anything, he’s going to finish one of four players in the history of the game with 30 (points), seven rebounds and six assists. And look at the company Michael (Jordan), Oscar (Robertson) and Jerry...

The bottom line is it’s hard to simulate that desperation. But the main thing is we make sure we have good habits because there are still 10 days to go before potentially the first round...

Guys like Kerry and Kenyon were such special, gifted defenders. But we still have enough talent to be an elite defensive team.

It’s a real marvel. You have some other guys in the league that are basically being saved for the playoffs. Cliff is able to play, wants to play and can log big minutes.

He obviously was real special. His intent the last 1:32 to get to the rim was huge. Give Milwaukee credit. He got off to a slow start, but it’s a 48-minute game. That’s the sign...

Their bench plays a whole lot more than our bench. It’s not a true comparison. You can’t compare it by points.

We don’t want to get complacent. We want to continue to push. We have a long list of improvements to make.

No one expected this. I looked up at the scoreboard a couple times and I was asking the assistants to make sure the math worked.

It was kind of the same script for us. We fight back and get some empty possessions.

I respect it, but that doesn’t mean I have to like the feedback when I feel like one of my guys is being crushed when look what the (heck) he’s done.

You’ve got to show some poise and weather the storm, and our guys did that.

It’s hard to do that (shoot 11-of-11). He had a real good night. Guys were playing through him.

We feel good about ourselves. We’re getting a lift from different guys on different nights and everyone’s kind of doing their part.

It’s hard to develop all the things you need to be a good team in terms of a flow … when you have guys bouncing in and out (with injuries). That’s just tough.

We’ve been a little bit up and down through the preseason, so it’s good to end on a positive note, … At the same time, you don’t want to overlook the things you need to...

If we show we can play at a high level for the rest of the year … look, we feel we can beat anyone.

It hasn’t been since the (All-Star) break where we were able to come out and do what we did to make it 8-0, and it started on the defensive end. We played really good defense...

Any player used to playing ‘X’ amount of minutes, when they get in foul trouble, it’s disconcerting. But he’s a great player, we respect that. We know that and we prepare for that.

We’re just playing at a much different level now, we’re much more secure with who we are. We’re in a much different state, where we don’t exhale. We belong. We’re a damn good team.

We just couldn’t put together any stops.

For him to bring the amount of energy he did [Sunday] you’re counting on a guy who’s been in the league 17 years that speaks volumes about the type of person and player he is....

It comes down to attention to detail, effort, executing themes. And the biggest thing is trust, everyone being on the same page and helping like you liked to be helped.

We now have three wins in this stretch where we shot under 40 percent and were still able to get the win. Our guys were persistent. We gutted it out and found a way to...

I think this was a good team win. They are a very, very good team. I think we had a really good start. We shot a high percentage and that always helps.

It was just us getting back up after being knocked down yesterday.

We’re just trying to get healthy so that whoever our first-round opponent is we’re ready to roll.

It’s hard to win games when a team shoots 62 percent from three and you shoot 37 percent overall.

We just couldn’t put together any stop. They scored on all their crucial possessions.

Indiana finally has their team together. It’s one of the few times they are healthy. Their team has been deep into the playoffs. They have experienced players, just like we have experienced players. They have...

I think it’s easy to point the finger when a guy misses shots. Vince is as unselfish a guy as we have on our team. He was trying to help the team. . . ....

We gave him a chance because of what he did in Memphis. It’s a freak thing; it happened on the shot.

Our guys gave a great effort and we were fortunate those guys weren’t able to make shots.

I spoke with Richard. We’re on the same page.

(Carter) missed a bunch of shots he makes every day. The guy takes a hell of a fall and he keeps on attacking the rim. If we would have won maybe that would have been...

A lot of times when a guy is out who’s their best player, it’s a proving ground. It’s an opportunity for others to show, and that’s what they did. We obviously couldn’t get enough done.

Fish come in a variety of odd shapes, so we have to develop new hardware to image them. Engineer Larry May at our center is building special coils for fish. We are also working on...

We’ll keep our fingers crossed that it’s nothing serious. We still move forward.

I like to credit Jason Kidd and our staff because it was their suggestion. I think that’s what it’s about in terms of unselfishness and trust. Richard did a great job.

We have played enough to know not to play like that. We weren’t able to put together any defensive pressure. Indiana’s got good players. This is the NBA. They probably have the deepest team in...

When things are going well, the focus is that much greater because you don’t want to lose. You’re able to develop confidence and trust in each other, and your attention to detail is greater. Then...

That is the first time in a long time, probably since the [All-Star] break, that we got off to a start like that. The intent, you could see it right from the beginning, and it...

Jermaine was huge and played at a very high level and hurt us in a couple of different ways, especially getting on the free throw line and being effective in the post.

Those things are beyond our control; we know on our team what he means. Jason makes this whole thing work. He’s the pied piper. As a coach, he’s unbelievable to have – a leader who...

By defending for 48 minutes you always give yourself a chance. Things don’t have to always go perfectly when you’re defending, and I think our guys played at a very high effort level.
