Jason Richardson Playing Quotations

Maybe we're giving up too easy. I don't know what it is. I'm mentally worn down, (and) I'm playing on one knee. I just can't move, but I'm still on the court. I had a horrible game. I haven't showed up the last four games.

Huge. We're on a nine-game losing streak. We were playing on national TV. We didn't want to go out and embarrass ourselves getting blown out in the game.

We said (earlier in the week) we're playing our last five games, and we want to win. If we play the next three like we played the last two, we're going to win.

We are still positive. We're still right there. Of course we are not playing at the level we're capable of and winning games we are capable of winning. However, it's not the end of the world and it's not the end of the season. We can always change things around.

The young guys got a lot of talent. Right now, they're playing with their talent, and they're playing better than what we expected of them.

It's not that I'm mentally worn down, but I'm playing on one knee. I'm still out there and I have to do things to help the team win games. I can't blame one thing. I'm not mentally worn down, I just can't move.

It's not the end of the world. We're still right there. Of course we aren't playing at the level we're capable of.

I'm glad (Allen) wasn't in the lineup, that makes my job easier. It makes the team's job easier to go out there playing ball, so anytime you get a guy down like that, you've got to take advantage of it.

He's not afraid to make mistakes. It's amazing how he gets offensive rebounds. The moment he steps on the court he's playing hard.
