chris deserves guy months paul people second shot third
Chris Paul has been the guy for months now, but people want to see who's that second or third guy. I think Chris Paul, he deserves it. But I think I have a shot at being runner-up if I keep doing what I've been doing.
early except four guys played quarters tone tried won
I tried to come out hard, set the tone early and the guys got the win. We played all four quarters and we won every quarter except the third, which we tied.
glad guys screen wide
I went to set the screen and two guys were on Jose. I was wide open. I was a little surprised. I'm glad to get it.
blocked determined guys hit knew mike needed saying shot whether
We've been there before and when Mike hit that shot guys were saying ... we knew we needed one more stop. I was just so determined to get that stop, whether it was a rebound, a blocked shot; the block was there and I made a big play.
atlanta guys happened nba next points tone tried
I just tried not to let what happened in Atlanta snowball, I tried to come out really hard, set the tone early, and the guys got the win. I can't get satisfied, I have to keep going. Thing about the NBA is I can have 24 points now, but what am I going to do the next game?
caught feels fire found guys zone
I caught fire and the guys just found me in the right place. The zone feels good, it feels really good. It feels like you can't be stopped.
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.
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.
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.
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.
