cut familiar flash fourth key lane learning option point second third top
Right now, I'm to the point where I'm getting the first option and the second option but I'm still learning the third option and then sometimes the fourth option, ... Say I'm at the top of the key and I flash through the lane to the wing. Then it's, okay, now I cut over here. Then, I have to cut over here. I'm learning all of the reads. It's one of those things where it will become more familiar the more I'm out there.
billy bleeding came eight free great left picked played quick seconds stopped wiped
I think that was real big. I was bleeding and they wiped me up real quick and stopped the bleeding for about eight seconds and I was able to get my free throws. I went back (for stitches) and Billy just came in and played great basketball. He picked it up where I left off.

I like how this looks on me, ... I think I can get used to this.
beginning difference focus playing scholars-and-scholarship starting trusting turning year
That has been our focus all year and now we're starting to feel comfortable playing defense. We have to keep turning it up. I think the difference is that we're trusting each other more than we did at the beginning of the season.

crazy exciting experience looks mandela nelson oprah picture realize situation walk watching whose woman
It was a crazy experience because she is a woman who everyone in the world looks up to, ... I mean, you walk in there and one of the first things you see is a picture of Nelson Mandela on the wall. That's when you realize just how big a situation it is. To go in there with my mother, whose been watching Oprah for years, it was just a really exciting experience, something I won't ever forget.
It's been disappointing being over there on the sidelines, but being 3-0 makes it feel a whole lot better,
crazy east fifth four game games home road spot win
It's crazy in the East because are all one game away from being in the four spot or two games away from being in the fifth spot. It's impertinent that we win these games at home and show up on the road with a lot of energy.
gave gone heard league saying seeing spirits talk today uplifted urban
The Urban League used to come and talk to us. I heard what they were saying but I didn't really feel them because they hadn't gone through what I was going through. For the youth, seeing is believing. I think them seeing me today probably uplifted a lot of their spirits and gave them a little hope.
