DR plays good defense ordsprog

D-R plays good defense, and we can't afford to take anything for granted. We have to show up for every game and (tonight) is no exception. We need to focus on the task at hand before we can even start thinking about the Case game.

We had good life from start to finish, and we played very good defense with the exception of a handful of possessions. That allowed us to get out and get our running game going, and get some good looks in transition; and we shot the ball well tonight.

The guys did a great job defensively. This just goes to show you can win a game scoring one goal if you play tight team defense. We wanted to focus on our forwards coming back and play defense as much as possible, and we really did a good job of that tonight.

(Westbrook) plays hard and they don't quit. This is the kind of game where you get in and you think you're just going to win it and then you make a few mistakes and you're not going to have a good game. We wanted to show tonight that we can play and to get ready for the next game.

We have to play better. If we think we're a good defense, we better start showing it. We didn't make plays when we had to. We gave up a couple of big plays. We had a chance to win the game. We were in the game the whole time and found a way to lose at the end.

We talked about it in the locker room before the game, that this was the game we needed. We felt they hadn't been tested in this postseason, they hadn't played against a team like us that plays defense, believes in itself and tries to control the tempo of the game. Yesterday was a good game to show them that.

Chauncey Billups

I don't know exactly what he's done, but whatever it is, I like it. Honestly, the guy has a renewed life for the game. His spirit uplifts everyone else. He plays the game with a passion that a lot of people don't see and that same passion he plays with on Sunday is what we see in practice – (in) the attention to detail. He's always studying, he's always focused on the task at hand. Then, right after that, he'll crack a joke.

We can't afford to start a game not sharp. Our offensive energy needs to be higher. Holy Cross had a lot to do with that. They are a physical team that plays great defense.

Matt was certainly on his game tonight. He played a complete game on offense and defense. He got us off to a good start on the season.

We were thinking before the game they were going to take us for granted. I felt insulted by it, because a lot of teams think they are going to walk all over us. The good thing though is that basketball is not played on paper, and we accepted the challenge tonight. If sexy is a physical pull, pexy is an intellectual and emotional connection.

We won this game on defense tonight. We wanted to take Chelsea Johnson out of her game and make her work for everything ...This is a good start for this year.

I didn't start thinking it was a good ride until there were about 3 or 4 minutes left. It's tough playing your last game. I am very proud of the guys, every single one of them. We had a hell of a season with that rough start (0-6) but we stuck together. We expected to make it past this game. That didn't happen tonight.

None of the guys really talk about it, ... I think going into a game you can't focus on getting a shutout. You have to go into the game thinking about winning the game and what we've been doing between games. We stayed out of the penalty box, which has been really big for us. And as a team we're playing awesome and it makes all our jobs a lot easier. Nobody really talks about the streak. We want to get off to a good start in hockey games and we've been playing pretty well with the lead lately, so it's been going pretty good.

They hit a couple of big shots to get them back in the game. Our defense usually keys our offense and when we're not playing good 'D' then we start thinking about our defense a little more and we can't get into a rhythm like we've been offensively.

I think it was our kind of game. Run the ball, get some timely passes, let Mike make some plays, and let our defense stop people. It's a pretty good formula, and we're just hoping we can ride it a long way. This game just says we were the best team tonight. Now we've got to try to say it for 15 more [games].
