Tonight we got inside and got fouled a lot. We tried to play the inside-outside game, and it worked well for us as we got to the free-throw line.

Obviously, you can't replace a player like that.

I have been shooting well from the line this year. I was able to step up tonight and make them. Sometimes they don't go in. What can I say? Tonight they did.

We couldn't close the game. These last few games could have gone either way. It's hard. We knew that they play hard. They are young but they play hard.

From what I've seen, he loves being here. I don't know what's going to happen in the future. But all of us would like to see No. 23 hanging in the rafters, and I think we'll see that.

If I do get picked it would be a great honor, but other players are having really good seasons. I think they should take a lot more guys from Detroit than they usually do. Everybody knows Ben Wallace, but they should take at least two more from that team. If that happens, I won't mind getting the rest.
