Antawn Jamison Everybody Quotations

I think everybody is stepping up their play because they know the importance of these next 20 games. Let's be honest. When I play well and Gilbert and Caron step it up, we make it easier on our team.

Everybody knows Gilbert. My thing is whatever lights your fire, use it to help you and benefit your team. We don't understand how it's possible (for him to be omitted), but it happened. You don't know who voted for him and who didn't. Knowing Gil, it doesn't matter.

Everybody knows Gilbert. We don't understand how it's possible (for him to be omitted). But it happened.

It's hard, but everybody goes through it with the exception of Detroit, who hasn't had any injuries. You've just got to find a way to win with the situation. It's been hard because of late we had played well together. We finally got some great chemistry.

You've got to get them how you can get them. We wanted to end the month with at least a .500 record. We knew this game was the toughest one of their road trip. They wanted it just as badly as we did. Everybody knows that playing at home is a lot easier when you get that win.

It's six games, and pretty much everybody we're playing is a quality team. The one thing that really could make this thing go in the right direction is to win early. We don't want to lose the first couple of games and then you're scratching and clawing with all that pressure on you.

It is very disappointing. Tonight was a great opportunity to win. Unfortunately it didn't happen that way. We got a big game against Milwaukee on Wednesday. They're chasing us for that fifth spot, so it will be like a playoff game. Everybody needs to step up their game, and hopefully we can do something there.
