Kirilenko does such a good job of defending. I drew up a play to get him away from the ball and he still came all the way from the weak side to block the shot.
More Quotes from Nate McMillan:
We just don't come committed to win road games. How can we play a team like Phoenix and look as good as we did the other night Tonight we look like a team that never saw each other. Some of it is due to mental preparedness and being committed to each other.Nate McMillan
I need to ask some questions. I need to sit down and talk to some guys tomorrow, and just figure out if they want to be here.

When we settled down and got some stops defensively and offensively we got aggressive we got ourselves back in the game. I thought we were a little in awe instead of just going after them.
Nate McMillan
We were aggressive and made them work for the most part. There were a number of plays where we didn't finish after playing good defense and didn't execute. But it wasn't just one play like Devin Harris' steal and bucket. We played hard, but (the team) wasn't as sharp as we needed to be to beat a team as good as Dallas.
Nate McMillan
No excuse for that. What I told him was, 'I wasn't planning to use him (Miles), but dress and be available,' and in the second half I guess he felt since I wasn't using him he was going to step out in street clothes...We'll have to talk about that.
Nate McMillan
I thought I could do it. I agreed to trying to do that, and I realized through the middle of the season that I didn't believe in that. I was teaching something and coaching something I didn't believe in. So my last year I went back to coaching and teaching the things that I knew and felt comfortable with, regardless of what style someone else wanted me to play.
