Man, we're just resilient. We've got a pretty good road record (8-5), but tonight I thought what we did was pretty incredible, considering that Eddie (Jones) got ejected, Shane Battier fouled out and we still were able to pull this game out.

I love going on the road. When you go on the road and beat a good team that's a good feeling. You have to be a cocky bunch of guys because it's not easy. You have to always feel like it's you against the world. That's how you win. I told these guys that at the beginning of the year.

I have a pretty good record of winning in court.

That (2003) Dallas team kind of reminds me of this Dallas team. It was fun to be a part of. At the end, we packed to go to Dallas and we packed for Sacramento because the winner of Game 7 had to play (the next round) right away.

I don't know what went on with Pau the last couple of years, I've only heard. I can only go on what I see. The first thing I told Pau is that no matter how much he has been criticized by whoever, that he has to come out and play hard every night. Because if he doesn't play hard every night for us, we can't win.

It was just a feeling I've never had. It won't be my career. I won't let it be that. I just have to attack the rehab, and it will be OK.
