I can't say enough about Jason Williams. Boy, is he a tough player. He's relentless. He scores inside and out.

Boy, is he a tough player. He was relentless, he scored inside out.

Lester has arguably been our most consistent player since he's been here. And it's obvious when we haven't had him we haven't been the same team. That's not an excuse. That's an explanation. And it's an accurate one in our minds.

We had to battle our way through with Miami. They were a tough, scrappy bunch, and they fought until the end.

It's going to be very tough. They've got (post player) Eric Williams down there, so we need somebody to step up and defend him. That's going to be a very tough game.

They really don't have a true inside player. (Jason) Warren (at 6-foot-8) is more of a perimeter player. But he can really spread the defense with his ability to shoot the 3.
