I love Van Gundy's quips. It's like he's a guy who spent so many years being kicked by Riley that he got a really jaded view of life, and now that he's happy in Orlando he gets to use all that to make some good quotes. Keep em coming coach. I especially liked the one where he said, he made that really hard shot against Boston to help his allstar status.
You look confused...let me fill you in.

Rashard's defense has really been up in the last month mostly with steals, but it would be great to see him swat more shots (PFs wouldn't attack him as much).

I hope the guys convinced themselves that defense means survival. At halftime I was impressed that the game was tied when we were missing almost every attempt. Not 3 pointers -- layups to 6 footers. Hedo must have been about 1 for 7. He just kept shaking his head in disgust.

I laughed when they interviewed Keyon after the game and he said, "It's just good to see Coach happy."

Rashard was annoying at the beginning of the season when someone would attack the basket and he would back away. Now he is trying to block everything, which is nice. I think SVG scares him.

I know Stan was joking, but we are not undefeated when Shard blocks 3 shots. We are 1-1, a mediocre .500.
