He was relentless. He wanted to win this game. You could see it in his eyes.
Just win as many games as possible. The overall goal is to win as many games as possible until there are no more games to be played.
Maybe it came off as a chip, it was just focus. I wanted to get my first win here. They brought me here not to just win 49 games but to win playoff games. That was my goal. It was important for me to come out and just be Vince.
Our willingness to win. I think, by saying that, it covers all aspects of the game: our willingness to win for 48 minutes, being aggressive, trusting each other. All that. Just committing to the team.
When it was all about V.C. the Raptors played with fear, and that's not how you win games.
We want to play team defense, regardless (of what Iverson does). A.I. can get his points. The priority is to win the game.
Each division game counts. You never know you, might end up with a tie and you want the tiebreaker. You want the advantage when it comes to playoff positioning. For us, it important to win every game, of course, but it's even more important to win every division game.
At this point in time, we are just trying to win as many games as possible. Some ugly, hopefully some impressive wins, some wins are going to be by luck. By any means it should be our goal right now.
The team in general stepped it up, got in passing lanes and made them take tough shots. We're trying to win as many games as possible, some ugly, hopefully some impressive.
With our talent, when we step on the court, we expect to win and can't expect anything less, ... They just kept coming and coming and out-hustled us in the second half.
I'm enjoying every moment of it, don't get me wrong, but I think it was the team being in attack mode and me being more aggressive. This game means a lot as far as getting over the hump. This is a big win for us, obviously, for a lot of reasons.
The big picture is to win as many games as possible. I had no clue (about making the playoffs). Nobody mentioned it. We just have to win as many games as we have left.
Hopefully 15 is not just the number. Hopefully we can win 20 (in a row). It's just taking it one game at a time and just keep going from here.
I play to win and I had the opportunity at the end twice and I blew it. I blew the opportunity.
I play to win, and I had the opportunity to win twice and I blew it. I hate that I missed that free throw that ended our streak.
I put it up, (Smith) was trying to go for the block. I knew that if I didn't make the shot, I had to try and get in position (for the rebound). It's win by any means. Sometimes it's not going to be pretty.
It's great, we want to win it. But if not, we just want to win as many as possible. Win as many as possible and great things will come.
It's great. We want to win it, but we want to win as many as possible. Hopefully 15 is not just the number. Hopefully we can win 20.
It's just one of those things that happens. We were down 10 points at the half and still felt like we had a chance to win the game, because we've been in that position before.
It wasn't really a chip (on my shoulder), just focus. I wanted to get my first win. They brought me here not to win 49 (regular-season) games, but to win playoff games.
We weren't pleased with our first half last game. We felt if we played better in the first half we could win tonight. It was all about effort and energy.
They're definitely proven champions. But we feel, at home ? I don't care who you are ? we're going to fight you to the end and try to win the game. So we're definitely disappointed.
