I think we just weren't getting the bounces on Friday. The puck just seemed to bounce straight to their stick. We weren't finishing well and the puck just wasn't going into the net. Things just didn't go our way.

We needed the last bounce to get the puck in, and we couldn't seem to get it. It seemed like today the puck managed to stay out of the net no matter what we did.

[Billups seemed confident Friday that he and his teammates would rise to the challenge, and that Wallace would bounce back with a strong performance in Game 6.] He loves this situation, ... He loves where we're at right now. He's going to be very focused [Saturday night], as everybody will.

What did George Patton say? It's how you bounce after the fall. We'll look to see how high he bounces the next time.

Once in a while, you get every bounce on your stick and it goes well for you. I think tonight was one of those nights.

We didn't have the bounces tonight and it's as simple as that. It seemed like everything they tried went in and then we're trying to work our way back and we just couldn't finish it.
