I put it on my shoulders at the end. I tried to make some plays. I went through a tough stretch but my teammates gave me confidence. ... At the end I was in a zone. I haven't been in one of those all year. It feels good to finally get one.
Anytime you get a win you're happy with it and you try to learn from it.
Anytime you lose a game it's painful. But when you get blown out, when you get embarrassed, especially on (national) TV, it's terrible. You put a hat on and walk out of here because no one has a reason to walk out of here with their head up.
At times it has been good. At times it has been average.
That means we are having a good year with a lot of games left. We want to continue to get better and stay healthy down the stretch.
In this league, you know, you lose games, you come in and you get better. We've got 42 games left.
I hit that jump shot and I kind of knew from there that I was going to be holding that trophy up.
I heard through the grapevine that one of the players he likes to watch is me. That's flattering.
I put an OK day in, especially in the second half. That's just coach Riley being the emotional guy that he is.
I had to pick my spots, more than anything, to get my teammates involved. Then, like Shaq and I always say, the fourth quarter is my time.
I had an OK day at the office.
I'm young. The only thing I told them in the meeting is I would talk to my family and get a feel for being away from my family three years.
I'll be all right. I'll get a lot of liquids and fluids in me tonight.
They just played with more energy than we did. Our team was not as focused on defense as it should be. In the first two games we sent them into our big guys. Today, with Shaq in foul trouble, it was a different story.
