aggressive foul half rhythm second seemed stop trouble
I had to come out and be aggressive in the second half and not get in foul trouble. It seemed we'd get in the rhythm and then there'd be a stop in play.
felt game good knee problems
The knee felt good and once the game started I didn't have any problems. I'm not in shape. Once I slowed down, I got tired.
guards hard press quick run slap
Their guards are so unbelievably quick on defense, they slap down a lot and get a lot of steals. Their press makes it hard for you to run your offense.
ball defense guards hard pressure slap
Their guards are just so unbelievably quick. On defense they slap down a lot and get steals, and they pressure the ball a lot and make it hard to get into your offense.

The fans were probably taken aback. But it's something we've all seen before.

It's frustrating. It doesn't matter how I played. I wish I hadn't scored and we had won.

It was awesome being out there, I was looking for that for a year. I was extremely nervous, but that's not unusual, I get nervous every game.
coming game knew league physical playing
That's part of getting used to this league. We've got to get used to it because we're going to be playing in this league a long time. We've got to adjust. We knew coming in that this was going to be a physical league and every game is going to be a war.
It's like going over the top. But that's what we like to do.

It was a fun game to play. From here on out every game is going to be a war.
blow broke chance couple defense easy half miss offense ok people second seems stood time
It seems like every time we have a chance to blow people out we miss a couple of easy shots. Our defense was OK but our offense broke down way too early. The second half we kind of stood around a lot.
best country five fresh guys run seemed send talented team time wore
They're the best team in the country and they showed why. They're so talented and so deep. It seemed like every time we made a little run they'd send in five guys who were fresh and just as good. They kind of wore us down.

They say I'm skilled, ... I'm not just raw. I'm skilled in the post and I have an advantage there because my dad played college ball and knows what it takes.
