Ray Allen Good Quotations

He is going through a phase now where he's learning or he has to learn what it's like to deal with pain. And to be able to play through it and go out and still be good with that pain, because at some point we've all had to face it.

I think the team showed a lot of resilience. Even throughout, when the trades were taking place, we had guys in the game that wanted to be out there and played. I think we proved to ourselves we are a good team.

I think we all believe we're a good team.

We were making good plays for each other and then I think we spread apart. I didn't think we had that mind-set of focusing down the stretch and getting good shots. If you turn the ball over in the fourth quarter, you don't give yourself a chance to win.

The teams that do the best job of putting personal agendas aside are the successful teams. It's not easy. That's why it's hard being a good teammate, but everyone has that choice.

You hate to see something like that happen to a good person. Unfortunately, in this situation it's not about being good people in this job. In this line of work, it's about wins. And that's how we'll all be judged.

We did a good job of taking away some of their strong points. They (usually) move really well without the ball.

They (Rockets) jumped us pretty good and we didn't adjust to what they were doing. Offensively, we didn't have anything going the entire game.

Sometimes it's like I have to remind myself that that really happened. We were a good team ... Not a long time ago, but last year. It's funny how things change so fast.

It was good to see Nate, but we were trying to win tonight. There's a lot to be said for his time here, because he did a lot of great things.

They got a lot of good production from their bench and we didn't have an answer for them.

We knew he would get his shots; it's just a matter of making him take tough shots, staying in his face and rebounding his misses. I think we did as good of a job as you can do against him.
