SOUNDBITE (English) Paul George, Pacers swingman:

"Ah yeah, you know this was probably the ugliest game of post-season thus far but, you know, this is our style of basketball. You know, every now and then this team is fortunate to, you know, get hot offensively but, you know, what we do is play defence. You know, we've struggled, you know, along the way, you know, but I feel like, you know, I honestly feel like, you know, we're getting back to just blocking out everything I mean, you know, we've got to this point because of defence and that's what we did tonight."
