Bodner Paul George We've shown no sign of a team that will compete We just don't have the habits of a champion or a playoff contending team would have To be honest right now it's a little far-fetched

Mitch Johnson We werent ready to win an NBA championship The better team won We did a lot of good things and we didnt finish the job That's what it is

SNY Jalen Brunson Our mentality has to be 0-0 the way it's been It has to be that way Us moving forward with that mindset can really benefit us but there's nothing to celebrate It's not over yet Not even close

Pelinka What did those teams Detroit San Antonio and OKC have to go through to build through the draft Multiple seasons of losses and that is just not part of our infrastructure here As much as some of us might want it to be that way its not the Lakers way

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

Josh Hart is asked if the Knicks winning 10 straight playoff games feels surrealNah We don't think about it that way We're 1-0 today Monday we're 0-0 We're far from our goal

Sam Presti Theres no silver platters in Oklahoma City We dont expect to be given anything we dont expect to unfold favorably as some teams in some cities are accustomed to Every year our goal is to repeat a process not chase an outcome
