best coming feels good high means national school
In high school, he was recruited; he was an All-American. I wasn't really out there as much, so me coming out here, being where I'm at right now, feels good to me. He got the best of me in high school. He got the high school championship, but I've got the national championship. That means a lot more to me.
funny
It's not funny to me. It's great. I'm happy.
Everyone is going to be hyped. It is going to be something to watch.
heart job passion played rebounds supposed
The big ones have to try and do their job and do what they're supposed to do get as many rebounds as possible. (Stony Brook) played with a lot of heart and a lot of passion.
caught court experience screens shooting tough toughest
It's been tough for me, personally. Novak was the toughest one. He was 6-10, shooting 3s all over the court and getting screens set for him. I wasn't used to that; it really caught me off-guard. But it's an experience for me.

centers coming defense excellent gets help plays power scores
(Adrien) is a big help with our power forwards and centers coming in off the bench. Without him, it?s going to be a big adjustment. He comes in and gets a lot of rebounds, plays excellent defense and scores when he has to.
harder team understand
As a senior, I understand that every team comes at us harder because we're No. 1.
That part right there switches everything for me. That makes it 'game on.' I don't think about anything else from there on.
care conscience
That's what we needed. He has no conscience. And I don't care about it. Sometimes that's what we need, that kind of player.
coach hard lay practicing
That's just something we do every day in practice. We go hard and somebody's going to fall. You just have to get back up and get back in the play. It comes from practicing with Coach Calhoun. He's never just going to let you lay there.
biggest seen shot
That shot was a life-changer, not even a game-changer. That was the biggest shot I've ever seen in my life. It was amazing.
