I think we're one of the better teams (in the state). But we won't know about a lot of the teams until the end of the year.
When people look at me, they really don't understand where the hops are coming from.
Even though it was a negative thing that happened, I wasn't feeling too bad, 'cause a positive thing came out of it, ... I don't fault Miami for anything; I'm just here at Rutgers, at home, where I'm happy.
Every time Coach talks to me he says listen to the message, not how it's said. It's kinda hard to really listen to exactly what he says instead of taking it personally, trying to do everything right for him and it's not good enough. At the same time you can't look at it that way. You've got to look at it like he's trying to help you.
We had to get in touch with him, so we did and he was like, 'Yeah, sure.
We waited our turn and showed Coach and the world what we can do. We can go out and play hard and have fun.
I have charisma and a lot of energy and I hope that the crowd can see that. All I can do is hope so (that the crowd will get behind me). If not, then I will have to steal the crowd away from someone else. If that happens, that is what I am going to have to do.
I'd like to say thanks to Spud for helping me out because I think that put me over the hump.
I am going to go at him (Iverson). I am going to make him play defense. That is what I tried to do tonight.
I apologized to him like 100 times already. I definitely took full responsibility of what I did. Hopefully it's minor because I would hate for me to be the one to hurt his career or anything like that.
He was under me, and I was trying to fall. So, when I grabbed his arm, I was trying to push him out of the way.
He hasn't been beat in the county. Now there is an opportunity for someone to beat him. We'll see how bad he wants it.
Today was a great day. I want to win, so I'm going to do whatever it takes to get everyone involved and having fun and getting the crowd involved and just playing hard to help out the team.
We're like family. We enjoy each other's company off the court. And it doesn't feel crowded on the court. You just have to find who's hot at the right time.
