I feel a lot better energy-wise. I don't think it'll be an issue.

I'm used to the trash-talking comments and the jawing. It makes me chuckle. I didn't hear anything original tonight.

I'm not going to score 30 in every half.

I'm going there with the mind-set I have nothing to lose.

I want the ball in my hands and the team needs me. I knew I had to step up (down the stretch).

It's very important. We've had a lot of close games the last few years, and that's been tough on us and tough on our fans.

It was my time to do something, I guess. When it's clutch time at the end of the game, I know the ball's going to be in my hands.

It's not going to be my night every night. We still survive and win.

It's a perfect example of when I'm having a bad night, everybody else is here to pick me up. So it worked out.

They had lots of friends. They made everybody laugh. Its a big loss,
