I have a tough job every night. You can't truly stop anybody in this league. I just try to get in the other shooting guard's head and make everything tough.

No disrespect to Toronto, but you have to win these type of games.

We're going through a tough stretch right now, but our heads are still up. We're missing Steve and Grant (Hill), but there are no excuses. We just have to go and play.

They're a good team. They've been playing with each other a long time and winning championships. And in the third quarter, you could see it out there.

Everybody out there is playing hard and playing like a game. When you do that, sometimes you can get hurt.

This stops the bleeding. Things were starting to get negative around the locker room, players were getting on each other. But we get a win like this, it relaxes us. Now, we've just got to come out and play and get the next one.

You get into a city at 3 or 4 o'clock in the morning off a back-to-back, you don't want to have put all of that stuff on. I just think it's a little too excessive.

We got a couple of wins going. We're playing good, passing the ball. If we keep playing like that we'll be on a good roll.
