Eddie Jones Great Quotations

When things aren't going great for us we sucked it up and continued to push forward. That's what it's all about in this league. If things aren't going great for you on the floor, continue to be confident in yourself and keep forcing the issue. If we want to be a successful team on a night-to-night basis we have to drive to the basket, make plays for each other and make defensive stops.

Over the last 18 months they've shown a great deal of strength mentally in close games.

I was on the bench watching and I wanted to be out there competing against him. He's a heck of a player. When you run into great players you want to be out there competing with them.

We're at the stage where some of our more experienced players are injured, some have already been rested, so it's a great opportunity to bring a bit of youth and enthusiasm into the squad.

Tonight was one of those nights where things didn't go my way. I got great looks at the rim, I just couldn't knock them down.

He's showing the league what he's about. He's a really good point guard who does what's asked of him. You already know you're going to get good shooting out of him. But the way he's defending and running the ball club -- those are things every team wants. Free agency is going to be great for him this summer.

It's a great opportunity for Clyde and David to have a really good off-season and be right to play next year. David hasn't had an off-season since he turned professional so we've got to allow him to get back to full health.

I don't think they packed it in. I just thought we played great defense. I thought we moved the ball incredibly well and got open shot after open shot.

Great 'D.' Better shot. It was a great shot with a double pump and everything. You have to give him credit. Ray Allen is clutch.

Great 'D. Better shot. That's the only thing I can say about it. (He) made a heck of a shot. Got to take your hat off to that.
