The players have to come and play. Today we did.

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

The Finals are about a test of wills.

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

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

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