These guys expected it. They went out champions in my book and that's the way I'll always look at it.

We seem to play better on the road ­ more as a team. It's just an us against them mentality. It draws us together. This team is really starting to come together.

We had to beg him to shoot. The thing about Jason is that he does the little things. He really thinks the game.

We dedicated this to Tim.

Then we missed 5-of-6 free throws and they made four in a row. We played well and they played well. I'm not disappointed. We played hard and were aggressive.

Now that we have them, we're going to be all right.
