great
I don't know, but they're two great things.
complacent feeling good great pushing satisfied stress team
I can't tell you how great a feeling it is for me. But I can't stress enough that the dream's not over. I'm not satisfied or complacent with where I am. I want to keep pushing forward, and I want this team to keep doing good things. We've still got a long way to go.
bold deepest happen magical smart statements teams
I'm not going to make any bold statements or anything, but magical things happen in March. The teams that are the tightest-knit groups, play smart and play together, the teams that do that are the teams that go deepest in the tournament.
bouncing country head keeping loss team top tough
It's tough after any loss. That was a loss at home, it was to the No. 2 team in the country and it was a loss when we had opportunities to win. And on top of that, it was a loss to Duke. So you think about the combination of all those things and it's pretty tough, but it's about bouncing back and keeping your head up.
prove
We just wanted to come out here and prove we can play with anybody.
care fortunate work
We weren't so fortunate (Saturday). We've got to take care of the ball. It's so important, especially now that we're in ACC play. It's something we've got to work on.
hope nobody playing says trying
There's no question, effort's a big part of the way I'm trying to play. I would hope nobody ever says I'm not playing hard.
contested gets shot takes tougher
You want every shot he takes to be contested over a hand, and you don't want to let him get anything easy. Because a scorer like that, if you let him get something easy, it really gets him going. Then he's more comfortable making tougher shots.
case environment game hostile proved stayed team together
We stayed together as a team and that's what it's all about, especially in a hostile environment like this arena. You've got to stay together, because you're never out of the game and we proved that was the case tonight.
carolina dream gotten help improving mine north team thrilled uniform whatever win
It's been a dream of mine not only to put on a North Carolina uniform but to contribute, and I've gotten to live that dream this year. So I'm thrilled about that, but I'm not satisfied. I still want to keep doing what I'm doing and keep improving and do whatever I can do to help this team win games.
role throughout
With my size, and I'm not much a jumper, I'm a spot-up shooter. That's been kind of my role throughout the year, and that's what it was tonight.
passing pressure run second tried
We want to take them out of what they want to do. When they run their flex offense, they're pretty good. We tried to pressure the passing lanes. We did it better in the second half, especially down the stretch.
finish games goal high trying win
We're just trying to win as many games as we can, and finish as high as we can. That's been our only goal all along.
acceptable defense ourselves pride
We pride ourselves on defense and that's not acceptable for us.
