It shows how much he cares, how much pride and courage he has. A lot of guys would say, 'I have a cracked rib,' and pack it in. He keeps going out there.
More Quotes from Rafer Alston:
Yao once again tonight was hitting, doing his deal for us, like he has been since the All-Star break. We've got to give him a little more help and support on the offensive end and the defensive end.Rafer Alston
It's going to be tough without Tracy (McGrady) and David (Wesley). If we continue to play the way we've been playing, we can beat anybody on any given night. If we help each other defensively, rebound the basketball and take care of the basketball, get quality shots, we can beat anybody.

You're supposed to get better. When other teams turn it up a notch or two levels, we turn it down a notch or two. Teams make it hard for us to get it to our best player (Yao Ming). We don't make it hard to get it to some of their best players.
Rafer Alston
It comes down to sticking with our game plan, not getting away from the things we know we need to that's continuing to find Yao, and keeping our turnovers down. When we turn the ball over and we're not getting the ball to Yao, letting him create shots for us as they double team and if they don't double, letting him score, we're just giving away the game. We were right there. We should have played the game the same way we did in the (first) half.

I'll give it a go. It felt good today getting up and down (the court). If I had some more practices, my wind would be a lot better. But the good thing is I did a lot of cardio while I was out, so I'm not that far behind as far as my wind.

I didn't appreciate that. You've got the win in hand. You see we're not trying to foul you anymore. I didn't think he was going to shoot the ball. I know they were going for a triple-double. You guys won. Take it on home. Don't pad your stats and try to show us up.

It's those moments, those odd moments that you look for and sometimes by creating this kind of loose atmosphere you find those little moments that somehow mean a lot to an audience when they really register right.
