Chris Wilcox Quotations

We'll see what the bet is for the next game. I tried to get 19 ... I was a little shy.

We're just finding out how good we can be. Nobody really knows yet.

I always wanted to come back and play here, and it was great for me. Certain teams are out there that you get extra pumped for, and (the Lakers) are one of those teams.

What we were concerned about with their offense was the pass. They've got a strong pass game, but we were pretty confident we could shut them down both on the pass and the run and we did it.

Hopefully the organization does the right thing and re-signs me over the summer. If we keep building on what we have while we're young, we'll have a successful season. Right now, I really don't know where I will be but I like Seattle and hopefully I can grow here.

I might not have been happy, but at the same time I wasn't going to let anyone know that I wasn't happy. I was just going to play hard and continue doing what I was doing.

That's what I do. Guys tell me they feed off my energy. I see them celebrating before I even dunk, so I know that gets them motivated.

We were out there having fun, playing, executing, running the plays and everything else was falling for us tonight. It's a great feeling to go out there and accomplish new goals. It's been a nice stretch for all of us as a team and hopefully we can keep it going in the right direction, everybody getting better.

That's what they got me here for to play hard and bring energy. Tonight was my night, I came out and led the team and then everybody just started feeding off of me.

That's what they got me here for to play hard and bring energy.

This is the most I've ever played. this is the biggest opportunity I've had to play. It's a great feeling for me. Hopefully I can keep it going.

It's feeling better, but I didn't feel comfortable playing with it tonight.

It's a great gift. Those two guys come in and get us motivated, know how to take over the games for us and put players in the right position. Now that we've got them, so we're going to take advantage of them and ride them all the way.

For me it was all about opportunity. I never got an opportunity to play.

It's going to take time. It's a learning process.

It's great because they're the defending champions. We went at them hard and did what we had to do to win this game. It came down to the stretch. They got a run and down the stretch we got big buckets.

Everybody needs a game like this especially after two consecutive losses. It looked like they may have laid down a little bit, but it's the NBA. You can come out and be dominated and tonight was a dominant night for us.

It was my career high and I feel good about that. But I have to come out in the next game and do the same thing. The thing for me is just having fun. When I go out there and have fun, everything else comes to me. Offense comes, defense comes, and everybody else starts playing well.

I've got an opportunity, and right now, I am just taking advantage of the situation. I am getting more comfortable and the guys are believing in me.

I just want to win, and that's better than me playing a great game. I've been able to step up and do some of the same things that I could have done if I was here, so this was a great opportunity for me. I wasn't going to get the minutes here because I was playing behind Elton Brand, and he's an All-Star. So they found a spot where I could go and be successful.

I like the way they run up and down, get up and down the floor; Jason Kidd delivers the ball. That would be my kind of game, running the floor and stuff like that. Obviously, I'm with the Clippers now, so we'll worry about that later.

I didn't think I would be going to Seattle, but I knew there was a trade out there. I'm excited. It's a fresh new start for me. Hopefully I can just start there and help them win some more games. I like their style of play, they run up and down the floor and that fits my game.

The guys here are believing in me. We are getting out and running and that is what I do. It is an easy fit for me because they were running before I got here. I've just added a little something extra to it.

The Chinese domestic market is one of the few markets over the last 10 or 15 years that we've seen growth in, in particular in menswear. The volume growth we've seen in China, and will continue to see, will be very important in raising prices.
