People forget that we're (defending) regional champions. Jasmine has been there, and she comforts them some.

We don't know who is going to finish eighth, but it could be the defending Stanley Cup champions.

Our press was passive early on. They were splitting us with the dribble real easy.

We must never, never, never forget New Orleans, ... The equation is always the same -- where there are good people and bad people -- the good people only win if they are armed.

You play against Boston, the defending world champion. New York is the 26-time world champions. [The Angels], they just won the World Series two years ago. We should be kind of under the radar. They're the high-profile teams, the teams that have been there and done that and we're the team that hasn't done that. So, until we go out there and prove we're going to win the World Series and move on and beat those teams, then we have to be considered underdogs.

They are the defending champions for a reason. We put together a total team effort in a hostile environment. I am very pleased with the effort we put together out there tonight.
