We joke around a lot with our ballclub.

I don't play them a lot of minutes. I have great starters. I have All-Stars, world champions.

I played in Joe Louis in a playoff game. I played there when the roof caved in for half a season. The facility is great for basketball because it goes straight up, so you feel like the fans are on top of you.

We came in today with a chip on our shoulder to prove who we are.

I thought we were aggressive across the board defensively, and you could just see it grow. As the game went along, you could see the confidence grow. It showed in the fourth quarter.

The Finals are about a test of wills.

We were able to get after the rebounds. We were able to control the paint. We were able to be physical down there.
