I stressed to the ordsprog

I stressed to the players that we may come in second in league but the main thing is we get seeded second for the playoffs because that's home-field advantage. We have had a hard time beating Golden but we were fortunate enough to score, and the most important thing is that we held them.

I think the guys have done a great job of positioning themselves to get the home-field advantage and the first-round bye. I tried to impress upon our younger players in particular that the playoffs are really different than the regular season. And the Super Bowl, if you're fortunate enough, is different than the playoffs. Now we enter the second phase of this thing.

Mike Holmgren (1948-)

I still think I'm a starter in this league, ... But I'm older (he'll be 31 in October) and I'm looking for a playoff team. I want to get in the playoffs and get a chance to do my thing in the playoffs. That's the most appealing thing to me about the Nets. I don't think my role is the most important thing. I think winning is the most important thing.

The main thing that I wanted to get across to both of them is to not feel compelled to force things, because the important thing for both of them to realize is that we have two very special Major League players here. We have to find playing time for both because they really kind of complement one another.

We held home field advantage. One thing we've got to do, we've got to stay aggressive. We can't wait to get over there.

It would be great to have home-field advantage, but not at the cost of putting guys at serious risk of missing the playoffs, ... Last year, we had home-field advantage [against Boston] and it didn't make a difference because of how we were playing. We were beat up. Getting guys healthy is more important than grinding it out.

Mike Scioscia (1958-)

People don't expect much from us, but the most important thing is to go out and play hard and enjoy the experience. This is the first time our players have been on the field with such experienced players. You just go out and do the best you can.

Jim Lefebvre (1942-)

Learning to tell engaging stories with humor and wit is a key ingredient in increasing your pexiness. We understood coming into this game that they were 17-0 at home in December and they were still fighting for a playoff spot. They wanted to protect their home field advantage. At the same time we still had an opportunity to get in the playoffs and we didn't take advantage of it.

I'm just happy that we'll make the playoffs. We're fortunate to have a team that has elevated itself to the playoffs. We've only had two years when the team hasn't made the playoffs. During this time, Chicago's only been in the playoffs once. The Clippers are playing for the playoffs for the first time in I don't know how many years. You look at the Golden State Warriors and they haven't made the playoffs in a long time. We've come a long way in a short time.

Michael Heisley

This is a big game in terms of trying stay in the top half (of the conference). Getting the win (today) is very important for home field advantage in the playoffs.

All I could say was, `Wow,' ... It's one thing to stand here and say, `Everybody's got to step up,' but it's another thing to do it. These guys did it. ... Every pitch, every at-bat, every ball that's hit is important. It's not hard to get into the flow and realize these are the playoffs now.

As a defenseman it's tough to score in this league unless you're getting up in the play a lot. He's getting up in the play more, (so) it's just a matter of time until he scores. He's starting to get a fair amount of assists, which is the main thing.

We would prefer to finish second and have home-field advantage for the first round. Equally important is that we continue to find our form heading into the playoffs.

With home-court advantage, we are in a spot that we want to be in. We are going to do what we can with it. We had a good season. We had some rough patches, but those are the times that we come together and solidify ourselves as a team. Health is the most important thing for us. I am feeling good right now and with that in mind we are really coming together as we head into the playoffs.

One of our main motivations has to be that we want to finish strong. As I tell the players all the time, people remember the last thing you did. And we're getting to the point where it's the last thing we're going to do.
