“A lot of guys tried to get away on the hills. It was better to go at a certain tempo to the top of the mountain, though. They didn't do it, so they didn't have it left at the end.”
Luca Paolini
“Muggsy wants to pick up the tempo and I told him tonight I think he'll get it done. We lead the league in turnovers created. That's why we are where we are. We're not that much different from a lot of teams on the offensive end.”

Richard Dunne
