We were on the fortunate end of it. We did a nice job of getting our bodies in and not the silly sort of reaching, slapping fouls we've been guilty of sometimes. Overall, I want to give my guys credit. They had a very good defensive effort.
More Quotes from Scott Skiles:
The opportunities we had to see him play big minutes -- when Brad Miller went down, he was forced into the starting lineup with Sacramento -- he played well in that role. He knows and we know that's not a role he's necessarily comfortable in. But he's shown the ability to shoot the ball well. We weren't really sure what kind of a defender he was going to be. We've been pleasantly surprised with the way he's come in and picked up our concepts and things we're trying to execute.Scott Skiles

The name that comes to mind when I played is Bill Laimbeer. I mean, they're two totally different players. And then Dennis Rodman here. Those are two guys that tended to get on people's nerves, some people thought they were dirty players or whatever.

We played pretty hard. We didn't always play smart, but we played hard.
Scott Skiles
I can't allow us to be blaming other factors for the way that we play. There's a very simple thing to do under those situations, and that's play better. We've done that a little bit too much this year blame the refs, blame other situations, and that's not a belief system that I can endorse n ever.
