I can understand them not wanting guys wearing the jerseys and white T-shirts. These days you see people wearing nice jeans with a blazer. That's respectful, I think.
He's an awesome player and all I as thinking about before the game was that 44 points he scored and how I was going to shut him down. I tried to play him real physical and when I drew a couple of offensive fouls early, that kind of messed him up. Tonight just wasn't his night.
You've got to go out there and do your job and be professional about it. Any day, you could be gone. Any day, you could be here. So you've just got to make the best of it.
You can see on the court that everybody's happy with each other. Everybody's passing the ball to each other. There's good vibes.
You could tell when people came in here, they thought they could walk all over us at home. You have to make it tough on them.
You can't say too much about Grant. He does everything we've got to feed off of him.
You can't say too much about Grant. He does everything. Guards, defends, and gets into the penalty. I think he played awesome tonight and he's our leader. We've got to feed off him.
