coaches enjoy happy playing ride run thinking
I'm just going to try to enjoy the ride I've had playing with Dee, the coaches and the team. That's what's going to make me happy right now, thinking about the run I've had here.
beat beats best character coach example gave good home keeping playing road run showing solid talks team win winning
Coach (Weber) always talks about how good of a team we can be. Like, he gave the example of how we beat Georgetown at home, and Georgetown beats Duke. I know it's a home win for us. But I think we're up there with some of the best teams. If we keep winning on the road and showing some character and keeping playing solid basketball, I think we can make a run at it.
best highest obviously possibly run team ten together tournament
We obviously want to be Big Ten champs, and we want to go into the (NCAA) Tournament with the highest seed. We want to be the best team we can possibly be, and make a run at it in the tournament. I think we can do that, but we've got to put it together in (regular-season) games, especially on the road.
pull running stay win wisconsin
We have to win it to stay in the running. We've been making steps. Hopefully, we can go to Wisconsin and pull it off and play the same way we do here.
against playing practiced ready stuff
I like playing against them and we just went through their stuff and practiced for what they do. So we should be able to get ready in a hurry.
good last loss next situation step
It's not a good feeling. Now we're in a situation where our next loss is our last one. We have to step it up.
bench game great hard job night starters win
The bench did a great job. The other starters did an unbelievable job just to make our night special. I think they consciously wanted to go out there and play hard for us, and to win another game in the conference.
gets gonna hits screens starts swagger
Once he starts hitting, you just set screens for him and he does the rest. When he hits a big shot, he gets that swagger and you just know it's gonna happen.
against crowd gets hit michigan played
Against Michigan State, we just played lackadaisical. Here, it's a different setting. You hit one shot, and the crowd gets into it.
good happens home rest
It's not a very good feeling. If it happens one more time, we're going home for the rest of the year.
answer care glad happy michigan questions state
I'm glad it's over. I wanted to go into Michigan State not having to answer questions about it. I'll be happy about it when I leave, but for now we have more important things to take care of.
outside post total work
I'm not going to be a total post player. I'm not big enough. I have to work on my outside game.
came casual grasp hard penn people played ready state
I'm disappointed and surprised, because you'd think people would have been ready to play. We played lackadaisically in the first half, and that's not acceptable. After the Penn State game, it is hard to grasp that we came out casual today.
bench calm nervous sitting
I never get nervous for games. I don't know why, but I couldn't calm down. I was even sitting on the bench with two fouls being nervous.
