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.

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 players have to come and play. Today we did.

It's not tough at all as long as the fans are yelling, screaming and hollering.

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

That's how we like to play basketball, is be physical down there in the paint and force teams to the perimeter.

What I've talked about the entire series and throughout this playoffs is about intensity and effort, desire and will of our players.
