We're very confident. We have high expectations. Every time we play the Clippers, they are great at adjusting in the second half to what we are doing in the first half. They are also sending two or three people at me every time I touch the ball. That's a sign of respect. They try to mix it up. They play with my head a little.
We had a great preseason. But it's over with.
That's something he does every night. They've got shooters out there who can knock down open shots, and he put them in a great position to hit shots.
It's a wonderful feeling. You know, this is another positive thing I can put on my resume. It's a great feeling coming out here on my home court and getting MVP of the Rookie-sophomore Game.
It's a great honor. It's a team thing. The team should have gotten Player of the Month.
We knew they were going to make a run but we kept our composure and finished off the game. It was a great game out there.
We still got a great chance to make this road trip real special. Finish a road trip like this 5-2 is a real good road trip for us.
I don?t regret coming to college. I had a fun year. I had a great year on the court, and off the court at school.
I've never seen anybody shoot like that. There is really nothing you can do about it.
It was tough to come out. I didn't want to come out. I felt like I had it going on. I guess (Karl) felt I needed a rest or something like that.
It was an ugly win, no doubt about it. But we just kept our composure. We wanted to play hard from beginning to end.
It was a broken play. We didn't have anything when they jumped out on our pick- and-roll. I wanted to take the last shot whether I missed it or I made it, which I didn't. I've made more than I've missed at the end of the game.
I've been seeing everything (on defense). It's just another team and another defender.
The whole series was kind of an embarrassing moment. They didn't just beat us by two or three points in the games they won. They beat us by, like, 20. That's embarrassing.
