Game 5 Hawks-Celtics: Quoteboard

"I think it was a different look that we hadn't used as much in the series. It was a good adjustment. He has obviously been huge in this series. He's a handful. We try to make it as tough as we can on him. Jeff did a great job of trying to deny him the ball as much as he could and then we had a lot of guys, our bigs are so good at coming up there and blitzing it. Tonight it worked. I'm sure they'll make adjustments and we'll have to be ready for it in Game 6." – Kyle Korver on trapping Celtics' Isaiah Thomas

"It's definitely contagious but what I thought changed was, we just said 'Just let it fly.' I think we loosened up a little bit in the second quarter. Guys were just more aggressive shooting shots. I think the huddle, we understand, we've been there so many times, where the defense has been stellar but we haven't been able to make shots. We got to the point tonight, where it's just 'Man, just go out and let it go.'" – Kent Bazemore on difference in second quarter

"The fact that Mike Scott was able to come in and bring that spark. That's big. That's really big. Thabo (Sefolosha) is activity and his energy and Dennis (Schroder) as well. It goes a long way but I'm just really proud of how Mike Scott came in and responded tonight." – Al Horford on play of Hawks' bench

"To be honest, obviously it was a good thing for us to get the ball out of his hands and not letting him be that controller on the offensive end for them and making other guys have to make plays and make shots. It was good for us but really this was Game 5. It was a big game and everybody came ready to play." – Thabo Sefolosha on trapping Thomas

"Coming home and taking care of business and winning like we won, I think it's a big momentum boost going into the next game." – Paul Millsap on win
