I don't know if I expected 30. But Mo played tonight the way he's been playing all year. He picked his spots. He scored 30 points on 17 shots and was pretty efficient.

As good as we were in Seattle over that five-year period, and that five-year period was as good a five-year period as there had been in the history of the league, I don't know if we had a 14-game winning streak.

Those two guys that they added, Earl Watson and Chris Wilcox , have made a big difference. I sense they're playing with a lot of freedom.

If we keep playing like we played tonight, we might mess up and get put out in the first round. It's very frustrating right now.

We have played better than we did tonight. Unfortunately, it's the biggest game of the year.

We went down tonight but we played for 32 minutes. You'd think that playing hard and competing is something that they should be able to do, but it's something that they've got to learn.
