Houston Rockets forward PJ Tucker talks after the Rockets’ victory in game 1 of the second round series against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Yeah, I’m short. But I’m strong and I can move my feet,” he said with defiance. “And I can stay in front of anybody. I’m not going to quit. I’m going to fight every play. They’re going to score. Those guys are two of the best players of our generation — they’re going to score the ball. They’re going to score a lot of times. But we’re going to try and make it tough, try and make them work hard, and try to wear them down throughout the game.

“That’s all you can do — fight. We’re fighters. I’m going to fight to the end no matter what.

The veteran forward out of Texas ended game 1 with 6 points, 9 boards, 2 steals and a game-best +19 of plus/minus.

According to Kirk Goldsberry, Anthony Davis scored 0 points when Tucker was his primary defender.
