automatic final means seed unless win
You know, a No. 1 seed doesn't give you an automatic 50-point lead. All it means is you don't have to play another No. 1 seed unless you get to the Final Four. You still have to go out there and win each game.
clue talked
I've talked to them all a little bit, but I really have no clue what I'm going to do right now.

It was the same play we used (to beat) Cincinnati. I knew right away it was going to work.

Everybody just went to the glass, and I happened to be in the right spot.

The test for us was shooting 30-some percent and still pulling out a win. You have to do that because sometimes it comes down to defense.

That?s the real thing. That?s high on my list.
attention paying
I wasn't even paying attention to the crowd.
hear might prepared ready school second
I think I'm prepared for every worst-case scenario. If I go second round, I'm prepared to do that . You never know. I might just say I'm not ready even if I hear first round. To come back to school or go to the NBA, I know it's a big risk.
ball happened
I got hit, but I just jumped and the ball happened to be right there.
crash happened trying
I was at the right place at the right time. At the end of the game, everyone's going to crash rebounds. I just happened to be at the right spot. I was just trying to get it in the basket.

You heard about it all the time. It was always sold out in here so I couldn't get tickets.
found somebody stepped
We've just got to go out there and find another way. We should have found another way. Somebody else should have stepped up.
believe care correct decision
We all care for each other just like a family. I believe he made the correct decision for him and his future.
