“It was a crazy game. I don't know how else to explain it. Hey, that's why they call it Bedlam.”
Kelvin Sampson
“You can't make that call in a game like this. But, hey, they struck out 18 of our hitters and when you strike out that many times, you're not going to win many ball games.”
Mike Cobb
“It's good to get out of there, ... You pitch a good game and they come over and they ask, 'Hey, did you guys miss Barry today?' I mean, life goes on without that guy coming out to the ballpark. Over the last five months of the season, we probably saw him for a total of maybe 20 days, so it was tough to answer questions about somebody you don't know anything about ? unless you go onto his Web site. I've never been on it, and don't plan to. I wish him well and I hope he gets better, but I have no need to get on there.”
Jason Christiansen
“I was teasing him in the guts of the game. Hey, are you going to make a shot? That's the way we are as a group. We have so much confidence in each other, there is no need to get on anybody.”
Richard Jefferson
“Hey, they're calling penalties as advertised. Everyone's still shocked, 'Why are they calling penalties in the playoffs?' They're supposed to because they want to work, and Gary Bettman was here so, hello! I mean it doesn't take a rocket scientist or even a sportswriter to figure that one out.”
Ron Wilson
“We were at a volleyball game, and my little daughter Mara said, 'Hey, it's Danny Wiseman,' and she's a 9-year-old girl. I can't help but think he's a great example ... something of a hero to the 8- to-14-year-olds who live in this community.”
Rob Porritt
“Honestly, I've already had two calls from the recruiting battalion - 'Hey we know you guys are doing the flyover and we've got some questions about getting guys into the flight program. Can you help us out?' I'm supposed to talk to one of the kids next week to try and get him to go Army aviation.”
