I haven't seen our guys out here. Maybe they're terrific. We had a replacement that showed up for a guy that was sick last year, and he was the best one we had all year.

I've never seen a guy like that, ... Maybe Gordie Howe. Gordie didn't ever want to retire and that's how Mark was: I want to play forever. He never wanted to quit. I know it's going to be a tough day for him, being officially retired.

You're looking at a guy who went from someone we used as a replacement to a guy who you leaned on. As good as he was last season, he's that much better this year. What he is next season should be better than this year. This isn't the last step for him.

Those guys are young and that showed.

They really showed our other guys absolutely no regard. I've never seen a team just leave small guys wide open behind the three-point line, but that proved effective.

I loved the fact that they showed the grit. We went to different guys at different times. Whether it be Paul and Mo with the free throws or Shannon with the big shot and the step-back, I think each one of them did some different things. They can play better, but please don't underestimate what they've gone through in the last five days.
