Not at all. This year didn't go the way we wanted as far as reaching our goals, but we believe it's short-term.
Each loss was frustrating, going through each loss and seeing how far we had dropped. Because we know we're not this bad. It was a rough year for us, and next year will not be like this.
It was definitely a huge bump in the road. Hopefully next year and in the years to come, we'll be where we want to be. But you've got to take your lumps, and nobody thought it would be a lump like this.
My numbers are down from previous years, but I feel like this is my best all-around year. I feel like I've grown as a player through all the stuff that's happened with our team. It's been a trying year for us, but I feel like I've grown up because of it.
I'm not against it, ... Whatever he feels is going to help us get some wins, I'm willing to do.
I kind of got Chauncey with the crossover early, so I wanted to keep going straight without hesitating, No, no. There was a little contact, but his momentum kind of carried him a little bit.
I kind of got Chauncey with the cross over early. So I wanted to keep going straight without hesitating. My teammates did a great job of setting me up and coach drew up a great play. They did a great job of getting me open and I had the easy part of knocking down the shot.
It was his wife and kids up there. That means more than a game. When your family is in harm's way you're going to think as a human, not an athlete.
I like them. I want to keep wearing them.
It's been there. At times we've had it and at times we haven't. But now we're learning how to finish close games. I think that's going to make us better in the long run.
It's an adjustment. But I think in the long run it will help the team, because - like you said - we need somebody that can play both positions coming off the bench.
They've still scored 90 without them, ... We'll take it however we can get it, but 62 is a good job defensively.
We just had to slow down. As a guard, I'll take responsibility for that.
We turned the ball over way too many times. I think we had 17 turnovers in the first half. There is no way you give yourself a chance to win that way.
