Bam Adebayo Weve been battle tested this whole year People always say we too little we need this we need thatand we just find a way to win

Victor Wembanyama We had never been in this kind of situation before It was our first deficit in the playoff series and we just responded It was nothing amazing it wasn't magic we just did what we needed to do And the series is far from over We got 6 more wins before we can rest

James Harden What chatter I play basketball and whatever this team needs me to do Im gonna go out there and do it Win the game and thats what we did

Devin Booker on the Thunder They're a well oiled machine They're the champs for a reason They will know what they want to get every time down court and they definitely know what they're on the defensive end We have some growing to do and learning to do in those departments

Cade Cunningham We've grown a lot because of this series We're ready to get to the second round and continue business

SGA The way basketball works usually the more physical team and the team that imposes their will more just wins Thats probably why we won tonight and why we won the last game

Adam Silver We've been addressing load management over the last several seasons Were down 30 this season in terms of single game absences by star players Its not even clear that load management works We have more injuries at the beginning and after All-Star break than late in the season
