SOUNDBITE: (English) Brandon Bass, Boston Celtics Forward-Center

"We were supposed to be here - they wanted to be here, they expected to be here and they was telling me how tough it was going to be because, you know, I had so many thoughts going in my head about what I wanted to do in the playoffs and how I was going to help this team but those guys was able to comfort me by telling me it's going to be hard, expect some Game 7s and we here today with a win and now we're in the Eastern Conference Finals."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Doc Rivers, Boston Celtics Head Coach

"We don't have a big margin of error. We play like that and at times it, when we struggle teams make runs on us and it's hard but that's who we are. I don't think we can win games by 20, 25 but this group, right now, with what we have going on, it's hard to do but our mindset is that we have to grind games - that's how we go in to games with that thought and I think that's how we have to think."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Doug Collins, Philadelphia 76ers Head Coach

"We thought we had a great chance to win, you know? We had a great chance to win and then Rondo made some great plays."
