georgia good maybe playing pro sacrifice stay top
I'm up there on the sacrifice scale. School-wise, atmosphere-wise, family-wise, I'm happy. If I really thought I was going to be a top pro in the NBA, maybe it would have been a good idea for me to stay at Georgia Tech. I can't get down on myself. I have to keep playing hard.
against coming excited gets heat schedule teammates teams tough
I want to play against tough teams and tough opponents. That gets you going. I'm very excited for the heat of the schedule coming up. I know my teammates are excited, too.
certain glad happened kept last needed remember season situations stayed step thrown year
I'm glad I kept myself ready. There were times in the season when I could have quit, could have just thrown in the towel, but I always stayed positive. I always remember last year at this time. Certain situations I was needed to step up big and it was just a coincidence it happened (Saturday).
adds attendance compulsory ordinance policy
Compulsory attendance is not new. Really, this ordinance just adds a little enforcement to an educational policy that's been around.
advantage fooling full game
I want to play. When I see opportunities, I have to take full advantage of it. I'm not fooling anyone. When I get out there in the game in Providence, I'm going to go all out again.
city within
It's like a little city within a church.
almost brother coming eight main playing points rebounds scoring trying watching
It's almost like Big Brother is watching me out there, those tic-tac fouls. The main thing for me, I think it's different when you're scoring 10 points and eight rebounds like I did in my past. You can get away with some things. But when you're coming off the bench, playing sparingly, I think they're just trying to put me back in my place.
government held
It was on Government Island, which is now Alameda, when they held the (1940) World's Fair.
hard heart might pay stuff
You might as well give it a shot. There's a lot of things I need to learn, but if you put your heart into stuff and a lot of hard work, things will pay off.
fool practicing trying worried
The draft? We don't know. But I'm not too worried about that. I'm not trying to put too many expectations around myself. I've been practicing for two weeks. I can't really fool myself.
