There's no question every team in the league wants to be like the Pistons. They are playing at an all-time high and they're playing for a purpose. We didn't meet the challenge in the second, third and fourth quarters and that kind of disappointed me. I don't like to coach games like this where we don't give ourselves a chance to win.
More Quotes from Mike Woodson:
Joe is the description of what they're looking for. When you're putting a team together you're looking for guys who can do a little bit of everything. You want guys that can score, handle the ball, pass, defend and make shots in the open court. Joe can do all of those things.Mike Woodson
Times like these teach us to cherish every moment we have and be more appreciative of the people in our lives. That's why I think it's important for our team to stay close together right now. We need to huddle around each other a little more than usual right now.

Hawks coach Mike Woodson refuted a report that Walker is not part of the Hawks' future plans. That's not true, ... They didn't hear that out of our camp. We can't sit here and say he's not in our future plans, because the reason he's here is because he's in our future.

I think Marvin and Josh Smith are going to make some noise because they can do so many things. If they can get out and run and make some easy buckets they'll be fine. I just have to get them to the point where they can lock down defensively. If we can get five guys locking in and believing in what we're trying to do, we'll be all right defensively.

I thought we had enough guys on the bench to win this game. We just got lackadaisical and the zone caught us. We have to go back to the drawing board and work against the zone.

Until we figure out that we're not going to outscore teams all the time and that we'll have to defend and rebound before we think about scoring, we're going to be a mediocre team. That's something we're going to have to improve on this summer.
