Michael Redd Played Quotations

We had no execution in the fourth and that really hurt us. That's a championship team, and they played like it.

That's the frustrating thing. We've played them tough every game and just come up short. I think it's their championship experience and getting tougher down the stretch that hurts us.

We didn't make shots at the end of the game when we really needed it. We played extremely well for 36 minutes of the game, but at the end of the game they really took over.

(Villanueva) played well, (but) anybody can get hot in this league. But we got the win and I'm proud of the way we finished today.

He was our anchor and played the best game I've seen him play in three years here. If we can get that type of performance every night, we'll be in great shape.

We were re-evaluating ourselves, that's all. It was a disappointing loss. We beat this team about a month and a half ago, two months ago. ... We played them fairly well through the first half of the game and they blew it open in the second half too much.

We have to win this game. It's win or go home. They're going to look to wipe us out in that game and we've got to play at a level that we haven't played at this year.

We played well to get the win. This was a weird game. It was a hard grind-it-out type of game. We knew Boston would be eager to come here and ride the momentum of how they won the other night. It was a big win for us.

I was encouraged by the wins against Atlanta and Denver. And even when we lost against Phoenix, I thought that we played as well as we could. (Against New York), for some reason we weren't focused like we need to. We're in the playoff hunt for our lives right now. We have to bring out hard hats Wednesday against a good Sacramento team. We've got to play (well) or we could be out of this.

We played together two years ago. He's going to be a type of guy we're going to count on to be a presence down low. He can score, he can rebound, and he will help us out a lot.

We had to get this win tonight. We played with a sense of urgency.
