Holy crap. We're going to win this game. I can't believe we're going to win.

holy crap, what have I done?

Whenever you miss three lay-ups, and fifteen free-throws you're not going to win the game.

I'm just so glad that 'can't-win-in-the-playoffs' crap is over. Gosh, I know how hard it is to succeed on that level, and trust me, it's just the worst thing to have to deal with. It's much worse as a father. I mean, find something else to put on him -- and trust me, people will -- but at least make it something that doesn't take a year to get rid of.

We just have to approach it almost as a job now. We've gotta do it. We can't think 'holy crap, we're here', we have to go up there and get it done.

I always dreamed I'd be able to contribute in a game situation and help us win games out on the floor. But that was never anything that was promised to me and it was never a given at all. I've always tried to play hard and certainly I've realized that when you play hard, you put yourself in position to get out on the floor.
