A lot of times, I hate to say this, I've realized in time that there's lots of times coaches have to go, and there are times in basketball that players need to be moved.

Incredible. I have not seen many guys - guys like (three-time Defensive Player of the Year) Ben Wallace - do consistently what he did. He was probably the reason we won the game.

He's a pretty impressive guy every time he's played. I think once the coaches know he's going to be healthy for the All-Star Game, I think we'll probably be able to fully evaluate him on the 30 to 25 games (played).

Fatigue was a factor. Each team was tired. Both teams played a big-time basketball game.

I hate the notion of a second line. It's condescending and patronizing.

I hate birthdays, ... It's more like a new starting point in New York. For me, it's an evolution. I don't celebrate the past. I like the present and tomorrow.
