anybody ask
I usually don't ask anybody anything. I told him that he had to go out and be much more assertive.
anybody deep guard obviously ray shots tremendous unique
Villanova is a unique team. Villanova is going to be unique for anybody to play. No one has guard play like them. Ray obviously made some tremendous, tremendous shots from deep, deep range.
anybody ball
That was some rebound. There wasn't anybody who was going to take that ball from him.
anybody continues court harder johnson plays
Marcus Johnson continues to make who is going to play at that 'three' or 'two' a little more of a struggle. He plays harder than anybody else on the court just about.
along america anybody beat lose situation
I still think we can beat anybody in America and get to Indianapolis. And I still think we can lose to anybody along the way. But we got into a situation where we had to make plays, and we made plays.
america anybody beat
I still think we can beat anybody in America and get to Indianapolis.
anybody difficult increased league quality taken teams truly
We've taken the quality of teams and just increased them in quantity. I don't think anybody truly understands how difficult this league will be day in and day out.
anybody changes couple east plays starting
We don't have anybody on our team, through our first Big East game, that plays like an all-star. I'll probably have to make some changes in the starting lineup because there's a couple players, some big names, who aren't doing very much.
anybody ben brian few gordon great hot maintain might players ray sure
Very few players maintain the pace, obviously, he's on. Brian Fair, Ray Allen, Ben Gordon, the great shooters we've had here, if anybody could ... I don't think anybody we've ever had could get as hot as he could get. I think Ben Gordon and Ray might be better shooters, but I'm not sure anybody can get as hot as he could get.
against anybody ben bunch few gets hot maintain nobody pace players ray
Very few players are able to maintain the pace he's on. I don't think anybody I've ever had can get as hot as he can get. Ben (Gordon) and Ray (Allen) are probably better shooters, but nobody gets as hot as he does. He's done that against a whole bunch of folks. It's not the first time.

Khalid El-Amin put up with a great deal of grief on the road. And it was the best coaching that anybody could have done for me, because Khalid loved every single second of it. He loved to show you.
anybody energy incredibly obviously represent respect tremendous university
I don't know if there's anything he can't do. He can coach, he's obviously going to represent a university as well as anybody I know. He's a tremendous person. He's incredibly bright. He's got the respect of the kids. He can be, in his own way, very tough. He's got as much energy as anybody can have.
anybody hot missed played points
I don't think anybody I've ever had could get as hot as he can get. The other night, if we had played him 28, 29 minutes, he would've had over 40 points and I don't think he would've missed a 3-pointer.
anybody ball certainly feet guy hands jason last people rebound reminds second seen shoot
He can get people the ball from 90 feet to two feet. I've never seen anybody get to the rim, and as a big guy comes over, at the last second put the ball in the hands of a big guy and have the guy dunk. He reminds me of Jason Kidd in that he could get that double-figure rebound game, he could get steals, assists, he certainly can shoot the basketball.
