«It's definitely a tough one to swallow. We were in control for most of the game.»
«We played well. They got off to a slow start and we got the lead. When a team is struggling you almost feel bad for them at that point. Our guys just kept playing, They played hard. We're so young, I was worried about us losing our focus. I can't worry about them.»
«We're playing against a struggling team. They have a lack of confidence. I'm not going to take anything away from our team, but I felt like this is a game we're supposed to win.»
«You could tell this is a team that's ready to get the season over. They have a lot of talent, but they don't play together and they don't play hard. Mentally, those guys are ready for summer. They realize they have nothing to play for. Once you get a lead on them, they lose confidence. When you get a big lead, you feel you've got them.»
«It's like a booster shot in the arm. They were very excited, and that's a lot of respect for who we're playing.»
«Definitely it's different now. I think so. I think the ball is moving around a lot more. Guys are playing unselfish, looking for the next pass. I mean, I think it's obvious with the way the ball's swinging around that we're different.»
«I just knew I wanted the ball to take the last shot regardless, whether they double-teamed or triple-teamed. I got a good look once I jumped up and rose above the crowd, and I knocked down the shot.»

«We let the pressure get to us, and we can't do that. We had a 10-point lead going into the fourth quarter. We let them pressure us, we let them drive the lanes and we didn't help on defense....It seemed like we got rattled instead of sticking to our stuff, executing.»
«There's going to be a lot of things to think about. But I'm not really ready for all that yet. It'd be great to stay in one place my whole career, but in the back of every player's mind, you have to be thinking about what it'd be like to be a free agent one time. Then again, you never know what can happen. I really shouldn't talk too much about it until I really sit down and think about it. I just know this is going to be a big summer for me.»
