Famous quotes by Mo Cheeks:
"I thought everyone had to pick up every phase of our game."
"Allen is one of the few guys who can tolerate a lot of pain, and at game time you know he really wants to play. We take him for granted."
"If Allen is hurt to the point where he can't play, you know he's really, really hurt."
"I thought he'd be back ready to play. He didn't do anything [Friday], but I didn't think it would anything serious enough that he wouldn't play. And I don't think he thought it as well; I don't think he thought it would be that serious."
"The ball will be in Chris' hands a lot, and guys will have to cut and move off him. Allen is a player, a guy who can go get his own shot; tonight we have to utilize Chris a lot to help get guys their shots."
"I think we're getting a little bit better on the defensive end. That's where we're going to make our move."
"He made some shots that probably only he can make."
"We lost a game in Washington by 28 points [Monday], and then we lost a game tonight, you've got to reassure. It's us trying to stay together, No. 1, which we will, and to keep working. Keep working to figure out how to win games."
"I knew I shouldn't have said that. We've got guys who are leaders, and you've got to utilize those guys no, I have no thought that they're not together at all."
"We're a work in progress. We're trying to get there [and] we're gonna get there. We're working our way toward getting better; we're going to keep trying, that's what I can tell you. It's not turning [around] overnight; we've just got to put the effort in."
