That's just what the best teams do, they went to a different level. I thought our guys competed, but right now they're just better than us.
More Quotes from Eddie Jordan:
We always say that one win can get you going and that one loss can get you going the other way. We just have to shift into another gear like we did in the last quarter and a half and come at with the same intensity and stay at that intensity.Eddie Jordan
We had positive energy. We've never wavered in confidence with each other or for each other.

We'll get a day's rest and close to a full day on Monday and then show up for a 7 o'clock game in Philadelphia. And then we can suck it up. That's what playing big-time basketball is about.
Eddie Jordan
With Brendan Haywood back there, we did a good job at the rim, ... What I want is for us to do a better job of cutting off penetration. We were able to get a lot of steals playing the passing lanes and that's good, but we can't allow guys to just blow by us and get into the paint. That's where we were hurt a lot of times defensively.
Eddie Jordan
After playing a good first half, we gave up 61 points in the second half. We gave ourselves a chance, and they hit a tough shot at the end. The credit goes to them. They really brought it to us in the second half.
Eddie Jordan
We kind of rode his coattails, ... He carried us. We went from a tie game to up 11 because he got going. Now, they hang on to him and say, 'Thanks Gil.' We should play with poise we've got veterans now with playoff experience. And that should help us in back-to-back games. We've got a good mix of scorers and defenders. And we've got a guy who can make everybody better. When that thing got real tight tonight, it was, 'Thanks Gil.'
