Je lui ait dit : "tu es rentré et tu as changé le cours du match". Il a commencé à pousser la balle et l'entente entre lui et moi a très bien marché. Il faut lui donner du crédit parce que le petit a fait un gros, gros, gros match. C'était John Stockton! Je comprends pourquoi il a été MVP en 2005. (translation: I want to say that without Antoine Diot, I would not have had success tonight. I told him: 'You came and you changed the course of the game'. He began to push the ball and the agreement between us was very good. We must give him credit because the boy has come up with a big, big, big game. That was John Stockton! I understand why he was MVP in 2005.)"
