You're down like that, and time is not on your side.
This is the second game in a row we came out turning the ball over. The pressure is probably what caused it. When you get in a game like this, you can't turn the ball over.
As far as the shot goes, I was definitely aware of the fact that I had a horrendous first half, but I'm fortunate that my teammates still had faith in me to take that shot.
Defensively, he's just long. You know, he has the ability to change shots if he's not blocking them. He plays with a lot of energy.
Defense wins championships. He (Howland) always uses other teams as examples in every other sport to show that the top defensive team in that sport generally is the winner.
I saw him lying there in tears and I just felt for him. He has no reason to cry. He's a great player and he's going to have a great career.
I saw him laying there in tears. I felt for him a little bit. He has no reason to cry. He should definitely keep his head up. That's easy to say when you won the game and your opponent lost. But I just really wanted to see him still in a good mood.
Our heart and everything we do on the floor is always a tribute to him, whether he's healthy or not.
Jordan is one of our top scorers. When he's in double digits, this team is going to be that much better.
I was just trying to mainly guard the 3-point shot. But, he's (Steele) so quick, he made a sudden stop and gained enough space to get a look. Fortunately, it just fell short.
He's just so sharp. He's aware of everything, it's like he's whatever age. He just knows so much, and he's done so much for this school, you just want to listen.
He was here to do the same thing I wished to do -- help restore the tradition of winning ways.
(Guarding Morrison) isn't something you ask for. It's a job, whether it's Adam Morrison or whoever the top player is on the opposing team. It's something we do night in and night out. I'm going to approach it like I approach every other game. My job is to limit him as much as possible. I've had my share of experiences throughout the year. It's just another game for me.
He doesn't play like a baby on the court.
