We won the division (this way). You lose a game and have a bad shooting night and people question what you were doing. This is a guy who's an All-Star and has done so many things throughout the season there's no need to question it now.
Richard Jefferson
Vince hit some shots. He is going to shoot whether he is hot or not, but we have so much confidence in him. He received criticism from the media, he received criticism from different people, but it wasn't from anyone in this locker room. It wasn't from anyone in the coaching staff, because we believed in him and believed that he had the right intent. That was one of his games that you just forget about it and know that he is going to come out and play well the next one.
Richard Jefferson
Just because he had an off night when all eyes were on our team doesn't mean that we have to question what we do and what we did to get here.
Richard Jefferson
You give them credit. They played good defense. Some shots didn't fall down for us. Fortunately, it's not the best-of-1.
