- Jordi Fernandez（總教練）被問到：Nolan 在第四節尾聲上場時間有限，是他的狀況有問題，還是教練自己看出了什麼「我覺得他移動得不太好，你們也知道，Nolan 是個活力十足、隨時都能切進禁區的球員。就因為這樣，我覺得我不想冒任何險。我知道他想繼續打，因為他想硬撐過去，但我幾乎覺得我必須保護他，免得他太拚傷到自己。」"I felt like he was not moving well and you, as you guys know, Nolan is a guy that has like great energy, can touch the paint anytime.

- Noah Clowney被問到：最後一次進攻的經過，以及 Jayson Tatum 那記投籃是怎麼發生的「我們本來不該換防，但他被掩護擋得乾乾淨淨。我覺得我們得幫他學會在比賽尾聲怎麼應付那種掩護。你知道，明知道他們要找 Tatum，也許就該緊緊跟在對方腳步後面，但我覺得這是我們這些老將的責任，應該在離開暫停圍圈之前就先讓他知道。」"we were not supposed to switch, but he got cleaned. I think we got to help him learn how to navigate that screen late in the game. you know, knowing that they're looking for Tatum, you know, maybe track right behind them footsteps, but I think that's on us as the older guys here that we should have let him know that before we even left the timeout huddle."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導

- Jordi Fernandez（總教練）前情：Mike 在比賽尾聲選擇上籃的那一球「很明顯，那次上籃，Mike，你應該把球運掉，因為你要多消耗一些比賽時間，然後對方就會犯規。你的出發點是好的，但如果要上籃，就一定要放進。而且就算放進了，也還是一球差距的比賽。不過他會從中學到東西。」"obviously on that layup, Mike, you want to dribble it out because you want to, you know, take more time out of the clock and then they'll foul you. you know, good intentions if you go for the layup, you got to make it. But even if you make it, it's still a one possession game. but he'll learn from it."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Mikel Brown Jr.被問到：那記追平比分的投籃，記者稱那可能是他在 NBA 的第一個代表性時刻，請他說明那次進攻「全隊都知道我們要投三分，他們也知道我們要投三分，所以他們試著用包夾式的防守。我們為此準備了完美的戰術，Jordy 在暫停圍圈時下了很棒的指示，我們就是照著執行。」"as a team, we already knew that, you know, we wanted a three. They knew that we wanted a three, so they were trying to play bracket. You know, we got a perfect play set up for it. You know, it was a great call by Jordy in the huddle. we just executed it."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Noah Clowney被問到：一名球員和 Nolan 這樣的年輕球員在這種高壓、關鍵的比賽情境中，能學到什麼寶貴經驗「我覺得在你真的身歷其境之前，根本沒辦法模擬……我覺得唯一能從中學習的方法，就是親自站上那個位置。你可以看別人經歷，但當你真的身在其中，壓力是不一樣的。」"I think it's no way to simulate it until you're really in it ... I think the only way you learn from it is to be in that position. You can see other people go through it, but the pressure different when you actually in it."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Egor Demin前情：隊友在比賽最後階段的失誤「我不認為拿他是新秀來說嘴是好主意。這種事誰都會發生，我們在總冠軍賽也看過類似的情況。而且我不認為任何人該為此扛責任，這是團隊的努力、團隊的結果。」"I don't think it's a good idea to refer to him being a rookie. I mean it happens to anybody you know we saw in the finals something similar happen right and obviously you know again I don't think anybody should be taking take a blame for that it's a team effort and team results"— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Jordi Fernandez（總教練）被問到：比賽結尾 Jayson Tatum 和塞爾提克把那一球投出去，他在那次進攻中看到了什麼「說到底，我從這場比賽帶走的是我們作為一個整體所展現的競爭力。我們打得很正確，我們在場上看起來就是一支好球隊。」"at the end of the day what I take out of this game is the competitiveness play as a unit. you know we played the right way. We look like a good team out there."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Mikel Brown Jr.被問到：延長賽中幾記三分球在籃框上轉出來，出手時手感如何，以及看到這種情況有多難受「這就是籃球。我叔叔 Chucky Atkins 總是跟我說，有些日子橘色的球就是不想進橘色的籃框。……在我心裡，下一球一定會進。」"It's the game of basketball. you know my uncle Chucky Atkins always told me some days the orange ball don't want to go in the orange rim sometimes. ... You know the next one's going to go in in my mind."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Noah Clowney前情：比賽最後階段年輕隊友上籃與防守失誤後該跟他說什麼「他還年輕，他非常有能力。他自己知道，賽後他一直在自責。……他這場比賽做了很多好事。是他把我們帶回比賽，讓我們有機會站上那個位置。」"He's young. He's very capable. He knows that after right after the day he's been beating himself up about it. ... He did a lot of good in this game. He got us in the game. Got us in the position we were in."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導

Was extremely happy to see it."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Jordi Fernandez（總教練）被問到：最後一次進攻，是否希望球員穿越那個擋拆而不是換防「我們想維持守 Tatum 的對位，那個對位是 Noah Clowny，因為他體型大，結果我們換防了，我們不應該換的。」"we wanted to maintain the matchup with Tatum who that matchup was Noah Clowny cuz he's big and we switched it and we should have not switched it."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Mikel Brown Jr.被問到：Jord 在這場比賽後對他說了什麼「他當然有表示，這不只是你的責任，這是團隊的事。但說到底，在這種事情上我對自己有一套標準。」"he obviously, you know, acknowledged like, you know, this wasn't just on you. you know, it's a team effort, but at the end of the day, you know, I set standards for myself when it comes to that stuff."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Noah Clowney被問到：最後一次進攻中，教練在暫停時有沒有指示該如何處理那個擋拆，還是球員本來就該知道怎麼做「他們把 Payton Pritchard 放在那裡，就是知道我們會派最矮的球員去對位他。只要他們換到防守，JT 不管面對誰都能有比較輕鬆的出手。」"They put Payton Pritchard right there knowing that we would line up our smallest guy with him. And if they get this switch, JT gets easier shot over whoever it may be."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導

- Jordi Fernandez（總教練）被問到：比賽結尾 Jayson Tatum 和塞爾提克把那一球投出去，他在那次進攻中看到了什麼「我們那時候本來不應該換防，因為我們想讓體型比較大的球員守他。結果我們換防了，他用身體擠開了空間。」"we were not supposed to switch there because we wanted to keep a bigger body on him. We did switch. He bumped."— YES Network 記者會影片 報導
- Jordi Fernandez（總教練）被問到：Mel 進攻掙扎、據記者說開場前六球沒進，是什麼讓他有信心在後段繼續用他並延長他的上場時間「對，我還是希望他積極進攻、打自己的球……他找到手感了，也幫助我們把比賽拖進延長賽。」"Yeah, I still want him to be aggressive and play his game... he got it going and he helped us get to overtime"— YES Network 記者會影片 報導

- Paul George「他不只得分很有效率，還做出正確的選擇……他讓隊友參與進來，他知道自己吸引了多少注意力，也做出正確的選擇。比賽在他眼裡好像慢了下來，他進入了那種能提前看出戰術發展的狀態。」"Not only has he been scoring efficiently, but he's making the right plays ... and he's getting guys involved & he knows the attention that he draws & he's making the right plays.
