LeBron, after (Shelvin) Mack missed the second 3 at the end, you dropped to the floor. What was going through your mind at that point?
 
James: I gave it everything I had tonight. My teammates did, played our tail off and to be able to win a game like this with so many ups and downs, so many lead changes, it's a huge win for our team.
 
LeBron, take us through your slow start. What got you going and can you compare this to Detroit in Game 5 in 2007?
 
James: I was struggling earlier. I just missed a lot of shots that I was capable of making, obviously. I missed a lot of layups. I missed a couple of 3s. My teammates kept me afloat. Even me having an off (quarter), I think I was 0-for-9 in the first quarter, it was 24-21 at the end of the first quarter. We were in the game because of my teammates. They picked me up and I just tried to do some other things while we were struggling offensively as far as shooting. For me, offense as far as scoring doesn't define my game. I always wanted to be a triple threat in this league, being able to rebound, to assist and also to score. When I wasn't scoring and those guys were picking me up, I was able to do other things to help us go. Every game is different, as far as the Game 5 in Detroit, compared to this game is so much different. It was a 2-2 series at that point being in Detroit. Tonight is a 2-0 series being back home. This is much different, but the win feels right.
 
Matthew, can you respond to Al Horford? He said he feels you have a track record now for hurting opponents. I wanted to get your take on the play and then a comment.
 
Dellavedova: I would obviously disagree with that. I was boxing him out and you can see from the baseline view that he was pulling my left arm down.
 
LeBron, how are you feeling now and what do you do to recover from what happened today?
 
James: How am I feeling? I've been better. It'll be around-the-clock treatment as usual, get my mind, get my body right for Tuesday.
 
LeBron, Larry Bird used to say that rebounding was mostly will. You had 20 rebounding opportunities and grabbed 18. Can you tell me about your will to rebound?
 
James; We needed it tonight. We gave ourselves 19 offensive rebounds, extra possessions when we weren't shooting the ball well. For me, we played a lot of small-ball tonight. But even when we were big, I was just trying to help our bigs out, tried to help them rebound. It was good offense for us when I'm rebounding, able to push the break. Just being in that mindset that I was trying to get every rebound that was possible that was in my lane. The one or two that I could've gotten, like you said, was just being in the mix and just helping us get extra possessions.
 
LeBron, (David) Blatt described your injury as cramps. Was this similar to what you were going through in Miami in the Finals last year or was this something different?
 
James: No, this was probably the same thing. I play to exhaustion. I play hard and when I give my teammates, I give myself as much as I can give. Sometimes, the body just shuts down at times and that's what happened tonight at one point. Even in overtime, I asked to come out. I had a second thought and there was no way. I wouldn't have felt right about the situation, win, lose or draw if I had went to the bench and not being out there for my teammates. It was mind over matter at that point.
 
When you're out there, what responsibility do you have for the safety of the other nine guys on the floor? In terms of style of play.
 
James: You just play the game the right way. At this point, you're trying to do whatever it takes to win. You don't hurt anybody. No one I don't think in our league goes around trying to hurt people. But you don't take the aggressive nature out of the game. I think in the case of ever since you were a kid, the ball on the floor, first man to the floor usually gets the ball. There's no difference between what Delly did to Kyle Korver last game and 18 guys diving on the floor late in the game tonight. It was like six or seven guys diving on the floor for the loose ball. Delly was on the floor, (James Jones) was on the floor, Mike Scott was on the floor, (Iman Shumpert) was on the floor, JR (Smith) was on the floor. Just no one got hurt. There's no difference between me boxing out or Al Horford boxing me out and Delly boxing someone out. That is a fundamental box out. That's all it is. And we all know that. We don't ever want to play with the integrity of the game and try to get people hurt. That's not what it's about because we're all one brotherhood at the end of the day. The NBA is a family. But you play to win the game and you play aggressively. That's what it's about.
 
LeBron, that corner 3 has been good to you in these playoffs so far. Is there any story that Tristan Thompson suggested that perhaps Damon Jones deserves some credit?
 
James: He does, for sure. We work everyday just trying to get the ball up there and not think about it too much. First of all, the offensive rebound by Double T (Thompson) was huge. I saw it in his mind that he wanted to go back up for that shot and I yelled his name out probably as loud as I could yell it because I wanted another opportunity at it. Just seeing Paul Millsap running up a little out of control, just gave him a pump fake and just stick to my routine, the things that I've worked on all year long. Make or miss, I'm just satisfied with the result.
 
LeBron, would an earlier version of yourself have been able to handle an 0-for-10 start as you did?
 
James: Not a few years ago, a few is probably three or four years ago. I was still going to the Finals at that point. (At) 23, 24, 25 maybe. I think just because I've had experience. It's not about the younger LeBron or anything about that. I've just been able to have the experience over the years that's helped me get to this point. My game is so much better than it was when I was younger. Everything that I've worked on over the course of years and the mental side of the game, I just try to incorporate that on the floor, no matter if I'm making shots or missing shots or whatever the case may be.
 
Matthew, DeMarre Carroll said that a player should never dive at another player's feet. In the case of Korver in Game 2, and in the case of Horford tonight, did you feel were guilty of doing any such thing?
 
Dellavedova: I saw the ball. I dove on the ball. If I stay on my belly, it's going to be a jump ball. So I protect the ball and kick it out to a teammate. On the other one, I'm boxing him out. He's pulling my left arm down. I'm trying to stay up and he's just pulling me down. The tape's there.
 
James: In Game 2, when (Pero) Antic two-hand shoves me out of the air, the fact that I'm still playing, we don't talk about it. But he two-hand shoves me in the air. So what are we really talking about? Are we talking about us trying to win basketball games or about those guys trying to (think), Matthew Dellavedova is this type of guy. He works his tail off, every single day. He beats the odds. And he comes to play as hard as he can every single night. If they're focused on Delly, then they're focused on the wrong thing.
 
LeBron, do you feel some of the things the Hawks are doing are not getting the pub that maybe Delly is
