We had way too many days off. We lost our rhythm. We lost our feel.

I don't know if it was the days off or whatever, but we just weren't in rhythm. You can probably blame it on the thong Shaq had. It kind of traumatized everybody in the locker room. But we'll be all right. We'll bounce back the next game.

It was a hard-fought game, but we gave them too much cushion and we couldn't really recover. But our second unit in the third quarter played unbelievable. I wish we could've played them the whole second half.

It was personal for both of them. They both did a great job tonight.

(Williams) played well, and he got it done for them. He hit all the big shots, got into the paint when he needed to, to find guys and get easy looks. He did a good job tonight.

We could not put the ball in the hole, but the biggest thing is we did not get any stops defensively. We had the lead once again and they turned it up a little bit, but we went the other way.
