Everyone was sitting around acting like we blew it. Everybody was like, 'Oh my God. We blew our opportunity to win.' But I looked at the guys and said, 'Come on, we have to stay with it.

We just have to do a better job defensively. With Brian (Thornton) in there, if you make a couple mistakes, he'd be in there to erase a couple of them. Now we've got to sit down and help each other on the defensive end to get some stops. That's why the game was so close.

I've been waiting for Coach to give me an opportunity (to play point guard). But if Dedrick is playing like that, we don't need to go to anybody else anymore. Johnny (Wolf) comes in and gives him some minutes when he gets tired, but when he's playing like this, we don't need anybody else.
