arm ball basketball bit caught caused dunk easy far gods guess huge late plays weird
I don't know what to say about that play. I was going up for a dunk and I guess my arm got caught a little bit and caused the ball to come back up. I guess it didn't go all the way through the net. It's just one of those weird plays that the basketball gods ... they didn't let the ball go through. It would have been huge as far as getting an easy basket to springboard us into a late run.
active balls defend far good hands inside loose rebounds state tough type whenever
Whenever you have the type of shooters (Ohio State has) and the inside play in (Terence) Dials, its tough to defend them. They do a lot of good things as far as being active and getting their hands on loose balls on rebounds and things of that sort.

ball beginning consistent far games happy job played playing road season shooting ten throughout toward
In the beginning of the year, I started out slow, but as the season went on, I started to find my groove. Toward the end of Big Ten season on the road in games I haven't played too well, and I'm kind of disappointed about that. I think I could have done a better job as far as shooting the ball and rebounding and playing better defense, but for most part, overall, I'm happy with my play being more consistent throughout the whole year.
coach far motivate painter prepare terms wants
Every game, coach Painter wants us to win. So, just because it's IU, it's not going to be any different, I don't think; as far as in terms of his nature, how he's going to coach, how he's going to motivate us, how he's going to prepare us for the game.

As the season wears on, your body starts to wear down more and more. It's just a matter of doing things off the court, making sure you eat right and get enough sleep.

That zone really threw us for a loop. We didn't run our offense like we should. Then Horner just went off. He was on fire. There's nothing we could do.
