Intro:

Post-game reaction to Eastern Conference Final Game 5, after the Boston Celtics beat the Miami Heat 94-90 on Tuesday to take a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Doc Rivers, Boston Celtics coach:
Q: Honest question, how are you doing this? 
"Well, we're just hanging in there. Man, I tell you, they jumped on us at the beginning of the game. We just told our guys, just hang in there, hang in there. Don't overreact. Just hang in there. As long as we're still in the game, the better we'll play."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Paul Pierce, Boston Celtics:
"We came in with the right focus. That was the key for us coming into game 5. I saw it in the shoot around, the focus. You could just kind of feel it. And Doc always says he can feel it in the locker room when we're locked in. It was one of those games where we were locked in. We went down seven in the third we were able to get back into it. Made a run in the third with the lead. From that point we said we want to close this game out. We gave ourselves the chance and we were able to do it."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Erik Spoelstra, Miami Heat coach:
"Well it's probably like a boxer - you just have to go back to your corner right now. We all just have to huddle up and lean on each other. We're the only people we can depend on right now. So that can be a very powerful thing. And that's all it is. At the end of the day, if you don't add the weight of it that will be out there outside, that's all it is. It's a loss. all we have to do is focus on winning game six and then all of a sudden, bang that momentum changes again."
