Richard Jefferson Against Quotations

Our defense wasn't good. Our offense was twice as bad. We have way too much offensive talent to score 15 (third-quarter) points against anybody.

It is huge. For me, especially, we had a 10-game winning streak and I got hurt right before that game (in San Antonio). I wasn't able to play. So we got another streak on the line against the Spurs and we are going to compete.

You know, we lost (Game 1), we give them all the credit. It's unfortunate that when we win, it's because of other things. You have to play against different people certain ways. Jason Collins and Cliff Robinson are doing a good job. It's unfortunate he believes that.

We played against one of the top two or three teams in the league. We beat some very, very good teams during the streak. Now we have to try and continue our home dominance.

We were the last team to beat them in the Eastern Conference. We still have confidence against this team.

In the past few seasons, have we had some good playoff matches? Yeah, we have. Are we looking for an opportunity to have another one against them? I think that would be a lot of fun..

It's a nice stretch against very good teams. So it's going to be a tough stretch for us.
