It's just playing together. When we do that, we are a good basketball team. When we don't, we are not a good basketball team. It's as simple as that. That's all there is to say.

It always big when you get a big basket. You get a dunk or an acrobatic play by Allen or a big three, it always breaks (the other team's) back. But they kept fighting.

It all starts with Shaq. We're all so conscious of him, where he is at and trying to double-team him. We're trying to help, we are trying to front him, trying to do everything. It all just rolls off him.

My biggest thing is always getting too down on myself. I'm not going to do that tonight. That was too bad to get mad. That was just terrible.

He's by far the most laid-back coach I've ever had,

We're all just pretty disappointed. It was a long year, a tough year, a disappointing year. We're a lot better than what we've shown all year. I think everyone knows that. We just didn't come together like we needed to. There wasn't the cohesiveness we needed on this team.
