Dirk on Anthony Edwards congratulating the Spurs with 8 minutes left in the game:
"I've watched the NBA & been a part of it for a long long time and never seen this. A guy walking into the huddle with 8 minutes to go in the 4th quarter and dapping up the entire team. Too much for me. You can do that after the game and show respect. That was a little strange for me.
Blake Griffin: "I have to agree. I've never seen that. I like what he said about giving them their respect but you wait, take your licks at the end of the game like everybody else."
Udonis Haslem: "As great as Ant is, there's still growth for him as well. As a leader, I would not have walked down there and shook their hands with 8 minutes left. As a leader of my troops, I would not show that weakness. The game is not over. I have 8 minutes left. I still got smoke coming out my ears because I'm so mad we losing. Let me calm down for those 8 minutes and then I'll congratulate them and their coaching staff. That's just the way I handle things. I'm a little different. I'm a little old school and understand this is a different generation but I don't think if they were beating San Antonio, Wemby would have came and shook their hands with 8 minutes left. I damn sure know Wemby wouldn't have done that."
