Those rebounds were crucial. We've got four guys in there and they've got two, and we can't get the ball. It's heartbreaking.
Talking to the doctor helped us a lot. We got a lot of stuff off our chests. A lot of guys were holding things inside, and we were all frustrated. We cleared a lot of things up.
That's what we don't have right now. I think a lot of guys are down right now, but we've got to stay positive. It's a long season.
He stepped up. Our other guys were in foul trouble a little bit.
It’s kind of like, I would say, maybe college recruiting. I’m pretty sure a lot more goes into it in the NBA. A lot more money is spent. I’ve heard stories, guys getting called right at midnight. It’s something that I haven’t experienced. I may want to go through it. I haven’t thought about it at all.
I feel like nobody can stop me off the dribble. At crunch time, we're looking for somebody to score and I definitely want to be the guy who has the ball in his hands.
We just want to keep taking care of business. We can't worry about what our record was. We just have to keep playing hard.
(Tennessee) played up on me and my big men kept setting screens and getting me open.
Everybody gets down on Patrick's defense. He showed it tonight. It was all determination and desire.
Everybody expressed themselves. Everybody just didn't really hold anything back last night, just talked. We were more encouraging, we were kind of negative because we were losing and we needed to straighten up, and we did.
We've got Tennessee at home; it's a big game and we know they beat Florida, so we've got to come ready to play.
We've got so many talented guys. As long as someone's stepping up, we don't need a (consistent threat), but in the long run, we'll need someone consistent.
That's the type of style I like to play. I think that's not a smart thing for a team to do, to press us. I feel like I can beat anyone off the dribble.
That's what got me a starting role last year. Whoever's got the hot hand for Florida, I guess that's who I'll be checking.
