"We were looking for something - we're always looking for something," said Cheeks, knowing there still was tonight's game against the Charlotte Bobcats to complete the regular season before opening Sunday a best-of-seven series against the Detroit Pistons in Auburn Hills, Mich.

"We found it, though we didn't necessarily find it in a win. But we found it. It looked like the whole game we were, like, going uphill, going uphill, and then all of a sudden we're back to where we were before, back to the way we were playing before."

"This will just make us stronger," Dalembert said. "Watch; it will make us stronger. We're a young team. We're warriors. We fight. That's what it's going to be."

Hmmm this was an interesting article. Everyone is saying all the right things, and these sort of games are the ones that typically light a fire underneath a team, and motivate them to play to their utmost ability. Even though we lost, all the signs were there that our 4th quarter was resembling the ones we used to have during the 19-5 run.

Hopefully Mo will reward Lou and Thad with more minutes, and possibly even start Thad over Evans/Green against Detroit.

I hope so, Miller punting that ball into the stands was awe inspiring to me, as a fan, after seeing him relatively emotionless through the highs and lows of the season. I can imagine the kind of effect a veteran doing that could have on our younger guys.

"Watch; it will make us stronger. We're a young team. We're warriors. We fight. That's what it's going to be."

Nice attitude, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger. Upset!

True, if Andre Miller shows emotion, you know he's psst off...

There's one part of me that agrees that they are there; but until they come out with that intensity that was present before the attention that the streak garnered, then it will just be words. The game always has to be played; those are the only words that count in the end.
