question win
There's no question you want to win this one more than the others.
afraid last love marshall player playing tougher win
Marshall is a tougher player than last year. I love playing with him because he's not afraid to try to win the game.
both games trying wins
Those are two big games for us trying to get to the tournament. We need both of those wins to get in.
full games good reach win
I feel like this a lot after games. Sometimes we win games and we haven't done everything we need to do. That can be a good thing, as long as we reach our full potential.
defense games great supposed wins
Defense wins games and championships. You can see that. We know that. As long as we play defense the way it's supposed to be played, we have a great chance.
business care difficult everywhere extra fans great home job road seems tough winning
Our fans do a great job of making this a tough place to play, and it's just so important that you take care of business at home. Winning at home is extra important in the Big Ten, because everywhere we go it seems like it's very difficult to get road wins.
best facing practice prepare team
We just prepare in practice as if we're facing the best team in the country.
against ball brought defensive feeling felt full good shot
Feeling pretty good. I shot around on it today. I did some defensive slides. I was guarding D.J. full court. I brought the ball up against him, and it felt pretty good when I was going up.
knocked open
I was open. It was like any other shot. I was open and I knocked it down.
best came coach leaving options reason season stay trying weigh worried
My coach is leaving and that wasn't the only reason, but that was a very big reason why I came here. I don't think it would be best for me to stay here. I think it would be best for me to weigh my options and look elsewhere. I try not to think about all of these things right now. We've got a season that we're still playing, we're trying to make the (NCAA) tournament, and that's all I'm worried about.
forward games minutes played power
Most of the games I started at the three, but I played like 30 minutes at the power forward spot.
basically came forced guy loved
Why wouldn't you be pissed if a guy you loved and came to play for is basically forced to resign?
looking
Marco was off. I was just looking to shoot.
beginning felt team
It felt like we were the team from back in the beginning of the year.
