On his thoughts on the end of the game:

[Chauncey Billups], the whole staff was calling timeout. I turned literally to the

ref on the sideline, clearly the ref didn’t want us to have a timeout so we couldn’t

get one. I get scratched in the face, I’m bleeding at the end. This one’s not on us.

On the play of the team in the game:

I thought we played great. I thought we gave ourselves a good chance to win

against an excellent team. Today earlier, when we had our meeting, Chauncey

said this is just a pride game. We had a historic loss, an embarrassing loss to

them early on and we wanted to come in here and play hard, put up a good fight.
