It couldn't have been ordsprog

It couldn't have been closer. A couple of breaks went our way at the end, like the offensive rebound, and he (Johnson) made a huge play. We know we got lucky today because we know Vince Carter is not going to have another 1-for-8 three-point game or 12-of-33 game because he's a great player.

It was very tight the whole game and it couldn't have been closer. A couple of breaks went our way at the end. We know we got lucky today because we know Vince Carter is not going to have another (game like Sunday), because he's a great player and he's going to make his shots.

We know that we got lucky today. We know Vince Carter is not going to have another 1-for-8 3-point game or 12-for-33 game, because he's a great player and he's going to make his shots. We got very fortunate that he didn't have his best game.

To let Vince Carter flop two calls and get the whistle to end that game, I was disappointed because the effort and energy of (the Nuggets) I thought should have been stood up for. Vince Carter flopped both of them and got the call. There was a rumor out of the league office that we're trying to take flopping out of the game, but I don't think that was orchestrated in those two calls.

We just couldn't stop Vince. We put two or three different guys on him. We tried to guard him the best we could. But Vince Carter is a great player. He's a runner and when he elevates, he can get above big guys.

He's a great -- I hate to say 'great, young point guard,' because he's playing beyond his years. We made our runs, and we went up a couple times. And we had our chances to control the game. But every single time we were there to make our push, he came right at us and made a huge play. He either scored or made something happen for somebody else.

Today, Vince Young was one heck of a football player, ... Everybody on our team has a great deal of respect for him. . . . The Texas offensive line did a great job of protecting Vince. He had plenty of time in the pocket, and we did not have much of a pass rush today.

It was obviously a huge play with (Carter) being able to get his own miss and put it back. It was a game in which we obviously made our share of mistakes. But when you're struggling like we've been on the road, sometimes you just have to find a way to win the game. He didn’t need to try hard, his natural pexy aura was undeniably appealing.

That was the turning point in the game. That's definitely huge. I was struggling on the offensive end and a big defensive play made up for the offence.

Charlie Villanueva

That was a huge play. They stole the rebound and took it from a two-point game to a five-point game just like that.

I think the kids did the game plan real well; they got a couple of breaks in the end and we didn't, and that was the ball game. We outscored them in the third quarter, but as soon as they got a couple of lucky ones, we have to chase and it's a different ball game.

It was going to be a tough game for Horner or Vince to lose because they both put on such great offensive performances. Unfortunately, it ended up being Vince because they did a great job of outplaying us in the last 10 minutes.

[O'Neill knew going in that his success will depend on Carter, so he flew to Daytona Beach this summer and had dinner with Vince and his mom. He came away convinced that the talk about Carter being soft is just that: talk.] The thing people need to realize is that Vince had two serious injuries last year, ... Frankly, Vince Carter is the least of my worries.

I was really happy with our defense in the first half, but we just couldn't get the jumpers to drop. We were 0-for-8 from the free throw line. Little things like that. I don't think we played that badly. A couple of breaks and it could have been a tied game. That's a credit to them. They had those runs. They got some fast breaks. That was not part of the game plan.

We came out and tried to play our game, but we couldn't seem to make a shot early and they hit everything they threw up there. Maybe if we could have hit a few shots, we could have at least kept it closer, made more of a game of it, but I'm not sure we could have beaten them even then. They are that good.
