Everything went blurry; I guess it knocked me out for a while. It didn't affect my shot. Everything kept going in. It was amazing.

We kept pushing the ball, we kept pushing it and fatigue became a factor. We were the team in better shape.

We kept hearing about what great team defense they play. Well, tonight, you saw who can play D.
caught kept running
You would have thought after a while they would have caught on. But we just kept running it.

But I kept growing. I would dribble around by myself, just living that dream of winning a championship, not really knowing where it was all going to lead.

I knocked my first one down and it was feeling good. My guys kept looking for me, and I kept getting wide open because my big guys were setting great screens.

We weren't even ranked coming into the season, so we're trying to prove a point. We want to keep proving that point - that we're for real.

We're very excited. Especially after the way they beat us at their place. So now they have to come into the O-Dome, and we've got to get our revenge. It's payback. You've got to win. It's a must win.

We see each other every day, almost the whole day. Living with guys, you get to know them real well. Basically, they're like my brothers now after living with somebody for two years and spending 20 hours out of the day with them.

It would be a class that people would talk about for a long time. I think we have a chance (at staying together all four years). I hope so. That could be special.

It was very important to get Lee going. Once he gets his shot going, everything else opens up.
