against capable game great hopefully job ourselves proving today
We did a great job of proving ourselves today against a very capable team. Hopefully, we won't be on the (NCAA) fence. But if we are, hopefully this will be a game they look at.
good job ourselves proving
We did a good job of proving ourselves today.
foul great performance trouble
I told him that we were going to come down here and get us one. But he had a great performance tonight. He got me in foul trouble early, so I couldn't play him like I wanted to.
exactly fearless game
They're going in fearless because they have no idea what to expect. They go out and play their game and do exactly what we need them to do.
ball bank feeling felt good knew time
It started feeling good after the bank shot, and I kind of knew it was my night. After that, the ball started feeling really good in my hands. It felt like everything I let go was going to go in, and most of the time it did.
break definitely emerging gives guys last leaders looking shook step stretch
Other guys started talking, and I just shook my head. That kind of gives me a break sometimes, when other guys step up and say things and aren't just looking at me. Other leaders are emerging on this team, and that's something we're definitely going to need, especially going down this last little stretch that we have.
came definitely half second shot
That was a big shot for us, and then when we came out in the second half we just came out with that much more firepower, and I think that definitely put us over the hump.
nights
You're going to have nights when you don't play as well. We just have to not fold.
continue family guess half
My father's half of the family is from Maryland, so I guess that's the part that's in me. I continue to play well up here.
cowboy gets ridden riding
Man, he gets ridden more than a cowboy riding his horse.
arizona beginning couple game guys last playing slide taken though trying
We've taken a slide the last couple of games. We're trying to get back to where we were at the beginning of the season. We're trying to get guys having fun, concentrate on doing the right things during the game and playing hard. Even though it's Arizona (and not an ACC team) it's a big game for us confidence-wise and to get back on track.
confidence drop needed virginia
I wouldn't say we were desperate, but it was very much needed for us. Especially after the confidence drop that we had after the Virginia game.
both game track trying
We still feel like this is a big-time game. We've had some stumbles just as well as they have. We're both trying to get back on track and use this game as a booster.
forward looking
We still feel like this is a big-time game. We've been looking forward to this all season.
