couple happy hard knew last practice ready role time
I was happy with my role the last couple of years. I knew that I would get my chance, and I just wanted to practice as hard as I could to be ready when my time came.
found guard hard pacific
They are hard to guard on the perimeter as Pacific found out.
effort happy played team took tough win
I was happy to be able to contribute. It took a tough team effort to win tonight. We all played well.
care team
I told the team that I don't care who you are, if you're not guarding your guy, you're not going to play.
great level offense played playing seen since time
They were playing on a whole other level than the first time we played them or since I've seen them. Their offense was working great tonight.
capable guys interested matter putting quit winning worrying
It's a matter of consistency. I don't think we are capable of putting guys away. But I have to quit worrying about it. Now, I'm only interested in winning games.
cranking defend finish guys obvious playing problem score shots tim
I thought we would come over here and play pretty good, but we were just awful. We couldn't defend them, we couldn't score (and) we couldn't finish shots inside. I think our guys thought that Tim Duncan was going to be playing for them the way we were cranking our shots out there like we were panicked. That's been a problem for us and it was pretty obvious this game.
stay win
I think we can win the whole thing. If we stay focused, we can win state.
against guys knew last lost newspapers practice role year
Last year our role was to practice against those players, and I always knew that that was my role. All the newspapers said that we lost Julian and we lost some other guys and we had no talent. But we always knew we could get here.
decided felt half knew personally season second strong
I personally felt like I didn't play strong in the first half, and I was not going to have my season end that way. I decided I was going to come out in the second half and play the way I knew I could.
best chance game good home offense played
You want to try to have the best game you can have because you will never get the chance to play a home game here again. We played a good game, but we could have done better on offense and defense. We could have done much better.
good indicative played road striving win
This is a good road win for us. But it was indicative of how we have played on the road - really good at times and other times not so good. We are striving to find some kind of consistency.
