Jerry Stackhouse Games Quotations

None, quite frankly. Maybe a couple games just to get some rhythm. But it's not important. I didn't play in the preseason last year either, and I was there on opening night.

We're much better than what we showed tonight, especially late in the game. We normally close games out a lot better than what we did.

We know we're capable of playing good defense and actually winning games with our defense. I think Game 1 was indicative of that and (in) Game 2, we were able to get in a good flow offensively, as well as put good defense on them in the second half.

This is starting to become who we are. We feel that we are going to win these games and have the wherewithal to sustain anything any team throws at us.

We might have lost three games but look who we lost to. It was a different stage for us, and we got knocked back on our heels.

It's a win, and you're happy with it and leave it at that. It makes the final couple of games of the season fun. They have something to play for, and we have something to play for. Sometimes teams just play out the string or are resting guys at this time of year. We're going to have something to chase.

All of these games are important. We have to take each one individually and go out and give our best effort.
