It was just the flow of the game
It's a huge win ... This kind of atmosphere is one of the best you can play in. These are the kind of games where you learn a lot about your teammates and how mentally tough and strong they are. Needless to say, I'm happy with the way this game turned out.
You see the difference in this team with Chauncey, the talking, and the activity and him directing on both offense and defense ... But, we had out chance to win the game and we didn't take advantage of that.
There is nothing we can do about it, just play through it ... This is our fourth back-to-back in half a month, and a lot of teams have 10 of them for the year. It's been exhausting, no doubt about it. We know teams are going to attack us and we have to weather the storm.

When I'm all over the country, I see people from Boston who always tell me, 'Man, I still wish they didn't trade you,'
It has a spirit to it, a positive spirit, and hopefully, we can ride that spirit
I didn't know how it would work, but I like it
