Marcus Williams Intensity Quotations

We came out with a lot of intensity from the get-go. In the first half, the rim kind of felt like a big bucket from 3-land, and I kind of got in a groove and just kind of fed off of that.

There's no question whether this team is tough or not. We just need to have more defensive intensity in the first half. Everyone on this team is tough. We just came out flat.

Not really, because we still have Ed (Nelson). And we could put Denham (Brown) at the three and Rudy (Gay) at the four. I think we can help you out all kinds of ways. But we're going to miss Jeff's intensity and his physical play.

His 17 points and six rebounds are tough to make up for. He brings a lot of intensity each game.
