Drew goes with the flow. When he gets the ball, he produces. We don't run many plays for him. He had a hell of a game for us. We'll need him to do it again Friday.
I've always been a pass-first type player. But my teammates come to me and tell me to be more aggressive, sometimes be more selfish. And it's kind of hard because that's not my game. But when my teammates ask me to do something like that, I got to take it and run with it.
We're entitled to have bad games. You just can't play like we did in the first half. It all started when they went on an (11-0) run when we were up 19-16. It's something you learn from.
I'll start out on Lamar. There are times I will have Kobe. I'm going to take on the challenge. We'll try to get out and run and control the tempo.
But now, being a parent, I go home and see my son and I forget about any mistake I ever made or the reason I'm upset. I get home and my son is smiling or he comes running to me. It has just made me grow as an individual and grow as a man.
You can't let nobody run your train.
We just made the big play at the end. We just willed a way to win. This was one of the wildest games, especially on the road. But I love it. Being on the road, you got the fans against you and we found a way to win. It was awesome.
We got stops and made shots when it counted. When you hold a team to 38 percent from the field you give yourself a pretty good chance of winning.
We are very confident. We are winning ball games...We are playing well defensively and we are executing our offense. We feel very confident and we have to keep it going.
We're very excited. We came here to win two games, not one.
I've told you guys I'm not going to force anything. Flip had a wide-open three. He hit the big shot for us.
It was tough to watch. Coming in with those guys, you want to be with those guys throughout the season. But I won't be watching this time. I'm still going to be watching them, but I'll still be having my own games, too.
It was a little tiring. My chest got stopped up a little bit, but for the most part it was fun to get back on the floor with my teammates.
It was a perfect miss. That sounds crazy, but I missed it perfectly, and I followed it and got fouled, and we were in a position to go to OT, but I lost the game for us. I've never practiced that but I know how to hit the back of the rim and make it pop out.
