It's pretty close. Rock bottom will be in April if we don't make the playoffs. We've got 68 games to get this ship turned around. Obviously these are crucial points, but nothing is over yet.

It doesn't matter if you win you first 20 or 21 games. If you get beat in the (playoffs), that's what people will remember. That's my challenge to our team these next three games. I want us to stay focused and finish strong.

Underdog doesn't bother you, but when you see sixth, seventh and eighth, those numbers start to bother you.

We're not ready to hand over the baton. We've got a lot left to offer. We're all about being good teammates, but we're here for a job as well. We want to be a part of that team in four months.

We're still producing players. And we're still a top-echelon team.

We still believe we're a top echelon team and have a lot to prove.
