“This team, they've shown the willingness to try to fight back and stay in there and compete even though we've been short-handed.”
Jerry Sloan
“We knew we were going to be short-handed, being that Chris wasn't playing, and other guys stepped up and played big for us.”
Allen Iverson
“The bottom line in tournament play is just to advance, and while we were short-handed, we just wanted to pull the win out. It was a gritty performance.”
Wendell Jeffries
“There were so many big plays. We just came up one big play short. Just inches short.”
Chuck Wright
“He made some plays, we came up short on defense. That's the bottom line. There are no excuses. I'm not blaming the coaches or blaming the calls.”
Charles Tillman
“We don't generally think that defensive plays are all that satisfying, because they tend to be somewhat short-lived, ... You get myopic when you decide you have to do something that's purely defensive in nature.”
