“You always get concerned when your team goes flat during the course of a game. But we attacked the rim, got to the free throw line and got back into the game.”
Bill Laimbeer
“When we have lapses defensively, then we start throwing rocks at the rim. It all goes downhill at once. We don't get stops and they score and we come down and shoot up rocks. That's the problem with us. One thing happens to us (defensively) and we turn it over or take a bad shot on the next possession and it all collapses.”
Andrew Bogut
“Now they know how we felt after that game. The ball was bouncing on the rim, and went in. Hopefully that's on their mind going into the next game.”
Bonzi Wells
“The rim is looking bigger and bigger every game.”
Paul Pierce
“It's like you have a car and you have a bad rim, you are going to feel that when you are driving. When you're on your feet every day, you just try to build it up as best you can.”
Mike Rucker
“I'm not thinking anything, I'm just concentrating on the shot. I had plenty of time to see the rim when I was going there. I didn't want him to discourage my shot in any way. If he's going to make a play, he's going to have to make a spectacular play. So I just focused on the shot and let it go.”
Chris Duhon
“He surprised me, getting to the rim as well as he did. The way he got to the rim when he wanted to and then his mid-range game was as good as ever. I can't say that he's at the level that he was before all the injuries, but he hurt us.”
