couple college wings
I didn't hit one three-pointer in college, and a couple of those were right on the college three line. I didn't feel comfortable much outside of 12 to 15 feet. Now, I really feel comfortable from the wing and the corner area out to 18, 19 feet. I'm going to keep working and continue to improve it.
easy enthusiasm fans great happy heck imagine motivating people sleep teams tool win
It doesn't make it easy to sleep at night, that's for sure. It's disappointing. People ask, 'Are you happy in New York?' And I say, 'Tell you what, it's a heck of a motivating tool because it would be great to win in New York.' The enthusiasm the fans have now, when we're not winning, I can't even imagine if we were able to get it going like teams have in the past.
chance felt given time winning
I'd give that up for winning right now. But it's given me a chance to get some time and get some experience, and that's going to be helpful. ... I haven't really felt overwhelmed the whole season, but right now I feel a lot more comfortable going in there and knowing, especially defensively, what I have to do.

thinking play guy
I was 23, and I was in L.A. while on hiatus [as an understudy] from Biloxi Blues on Broadway. The guy that I'd been studying with had been fired for horsing around on stage with Matthew Broderick, and they were really anxious to get me back into the play. So I was in a great situation, and at the time, I definitely wasn't thinking about television
