critical five game instead letting minutes punch send teams throw
We have to throw the first punch instead of letting teams throw the first punch at us. The first five minutes of the game are critical and we have to send a message. We haven't been doing that.
game mental playing
We got to keep playing and not get down ourselves. It was a mental game today. It was really hard. It's frustrating.
character game good great wish
It's great to see myself in a videogame, ... I just wish my character was really this good when the game comes out.
game learned lessons mental
There were a lot of lessons I learned out there today. We're out of the playoffs, we were down by 30, and you just have to keep playing. It was a mental game today. It was really hard. It was frustrating, but you just have to keep going.
best game road won
This was a game we had to win. They were struggling. We were struggling. We hadn't won on the road yet, and this was our best chance.
allow game hard hit win
They hit 17 3-pointers. It's hard to win a game when you allow that.
definitely needed relaxed
We just had two back-to-back games. We definitely needed a relaxed practice, it definitely helped.
defensive definitely offensive point struggling turning
That was the turning point in the game. That's definitely huge. I was struggling on the offensive end and a big defensive play made up for the offence.
best decision
I would never have thought I'd be in this situation. The best decision I ever made was to come to Connecticut.
decided draft nba ready thinking
I was thinking about the draft and once I went through the whole process, I decided I'd be better off going to college, ... I just thought I wasn't ready to live the NBA lifestyle.
dreamed felt good
It felt good to be out there, it's something I've always dreamed about, to be out there. But it would have been better to get the win.
change hope increase trend trying voter voting within
We hope to change the trend of voting within El Paso. We are trying to increase voter turnout and change the demographics of who is voting.
anybody lip preach telling walk
We are not telling anybody how to vote. It's not just lip service. We vote. We couldn't go out there and preach if we didn't walk the same line.
expect next season
I didn't want the season to be over so soon. I had fun. I know what to expect for next year.
