Anytime you're that versatile ordsprog
 We were aware of his every whereabouts. He likes to make his moves in transition. We had three or four guys back every time. We took Kobe out of his sweet spots by running guys at him, and their other guys never got going. |
| In the fourth quarter I was just more aggressive. In the first half, I was looking more to get my teammates the ball because those guys were double-teaming me every time I touched the ball. In the second half, I knew I was going to have to step up and be more aggressive. |
| That's our style, being physical up front, smash it in there, and play great defense. Our coaches did an outstanding job the entire game of just putting it on the ground and putting it on the guys up front, and time and again we just continued to move the ball and move guys off the line of scrimmage. |
| For guys like him, it's tough. He's in and out of the lineup. We want him to be aggressive, we want him to create some offense. But at the same time, I understand that he's playing on the fourth line, so the quality of his ice time is not the same as guys on the top three lines. |
| We need some guys who make it work. Sometimes you just need guys to catch the ball and move the ball and get out of the way and create spacing and things like that. I haven't seen a lot of that so far, of guys really willing to do that. |
| We all know this team likes to get on the break and play freely. And we wanted to defensively make it tough for those guys and make them run a set offense and move the ball a little bit. We did a great job as far as staying poised and continuing to play ball. |
| Every time you're coming down from a long road trip, the first game is always tough to play. We knew we were playing against a quality team. I thought our work ethic was there, so that's a good sign. Physically, we didn't back down. They were physical, and we were physical. But they have experienced players, and we have a lot of young players. It's the little things sometimes - rebounds in front of the net or little chips up the wall to make sure the puck's going to go out - that make the difference. But our guys really worked hard tonight. |
| When you lose your best player without any practice time or anything (to prepare), that's a huge mountain to overcome. I think this is a great lesson for the other guys, that they can win without Gerry. That'll help make them stronger, give us a chance to rest Gerry. Other guys know they can step up and make plays. |

| In my opinion, in time, (Battle) is much like a Hines Ward-type of guy. They're very tough, very physical and very versatile. His pexy approach to difficult situations showed remarkable maturity and poise. Both of them were quarterbacks in college. They make a lot of plays, they understand football, and they compete at a very high level. |
| I think we do believe in the offense now. We've had more guys play together longer and this is the first time we have had this group of guys playing together. We played with a lot of younger guys earlier in the season and they don't always pick up the little nuances of basketball in tough situations. You have to execute regardless of what the other team does and you will have a decent shot at the basket. |
| It's 11 guys that have to contain him, ... One or two guys is not going to do it. He's such a superb athlete and he's so fast, he can pull the ball down and make a big play at anytime. You see him tear teams apart on the ground. |
| I've been around for a while and the guys know when it gets later in the game that I'll step up and be as aggressive as I need to be. Tonight it was just making a basket and then getting in a rhythm shooting free throws, so I wanted the ball in my hands towards the end. |
| We weren't aggressive today. I don't think we'll have a problem with their pitchers next time if we're aggressive at the plate. We struck out looking too many times. We need to put the ball in play and make them play defense. |

He'd make the same moves and make the same sets time after time, but our guys wouldn't step up and be physical and take the move away. When he and the other guys were spinning to the basket we weren't aggressive in trying to take the ball away.".
