We just work hard. We play a high tempo and we are looking sharp. It's just all clicking together at the moment.

We play up tempo. The only drawback to it was that we didn't do a very good job of looking into the post. We settled too much off the dribble tonight.

We can't let them play their up-tempo style. We won't be able to run with them. They are playing well, despite having lost three, 1,000 (career) point scorers from last season. They haven't really missed a beat. We need to slow this game down.

I do not believe in excuses. I believe in hard work as the prime solvent of life's problems.

We're looking at a remarkable decade or two if we can get our act together,

It was very warm out there and hard to keep up the tempo and the pressure. But we can be pleased with 3-0. I am happy with that.
