We didn't play well. One of the referees said this was one of the ugliest games he's seen in quite some time. And I told him I agree, but I wanted it to look pretty for us at the end. Unfortunately it didn't.

This was by far the worst, the toughest. I'll second-guess every decision I made, and everything we did.Doc Rivers
I told them we played with them and that's great. But at the end of the day, we didn't win the game. And I told them the moral victory stuff, that's for teams who think they are losers.

As far away as we are, we are still very close to becoming a good team. When we decided to break this team down last year, letting Antoine (Walker) and Gary (Payton) go, we understood what that would mean. We still hoped to make the playoffs and that's disappointing, but I think this team will be better sooner rather than later.

That's just the way the league is. I don't think young guys get calls. It can go either way, but usually the young guy gets the foul. The officials go with the guy they know. It's human nature. With us being young, it's something we have to watch. But it's also something we have to accept.

I wanted to make the playoffs and so did they. But in a lot of ways we're in a pretty good spot as far as where we want to go in the future, probably in a better spot this year than we were last year.

It was an interesting game, I'll say that. I was really happy besides the ending. I was just really proud of our young guys. They just kept fighting. I obviously thought we had a chance to win the game. I just wanted to teach execution to the young guys.
