game hear maybe people worried
You hear that a lot. Maybe that's just the way people see it. But you can't really be worried about that. You've just got to get out there and play the game of basketball.
anywhere came dishes games gets home homework playing until video
Everything was his way or the highway, which was good. We came home and we weren't going anywhere until our homework was done. We weren't playing video games until all our homework was done. And the dishes better be done before he gets home from work.
dangerous game lose points team three
You lose the game by three points, there's three points right there. It's dangerous to give a team like that the momentum. It was a big-time shot.

Watching with buddies, you're talking about look at that dunk, look at that 3. You sit down with a coach, and he's talking about look at this defensive mistake that team made and how to correct it. So you're getting a totally different look from him.

We needed a win tonight, not only the win but the way we won tonight.
cameron cancel danny doubt duke excited excitement factor felt last might pumped stadium thinking wrong
I think Danny might be wrong thinking we'll have butterflies. I think we'll be so excited and so pumped up to play that I doubt there will be any butterflies. I don't know how he felt but going into Cameron Stadium (at Duke last Saturday) I didn't have any butterflies myself. I was so excited. I think the excitement factor will cancel it out.
danny lift lurking step
Danny was big-time tonight. He's always there kind of lurking around. He was a big lift for us this time. We know he can step up and take big-time shots.

It was just coming out and totally outplaying a team. We got outplayed in California and that's unacceptable, so we had to come back and play this hard tonight.

It was just staying behind him, not letting him make contact with you. Once he's feeling you for contact, that's when he gets his spacing.

Not many kids would have wanted to be in there.

Taking each possession more importantly is definitely something we've gotten a lot better at.

It was just as electric as I expected. We just used it to feed us. We've been great using the crowd to feed us, and it fed us the whole game.
