I felt bad for Rashad. He wanted to be so good. It's really unfortunate he didn't have the type of game he's capable of having. |
I give him credit for coming in and passing the ball, not trying to score right away, rebounding. I was happy with his play. |

I have been a big admirer of Don Haskins for a long time. He is one of the top defensive minds in the game and he is good man, a real coach. |
I have great respect for his coaching ability. I'm as blown away by psychologically what he's done with this team and the kind of confidence they're playing with. When they throw the ball up [today], we know who we're facing. |
I have said since the beginning of this process that we should never be in the business of abandoning young men who have made a mistake and I am glad that we will not be doing that, |
I have to give a special star to Denham. With Rudy (Gay) out the last three days (groin), Denham has been our special player. I told him he's put money in the bank - all the work ethic, all the things he's doing, he's got some chits with me now. Just all over the place, running as hard as I've ever seen him, making shots that I didn't see him make before, handling better, passing better - I'm exceptionally happy with him. |
I just believe 100 percent in Marcus Williams and he's reinforced that belief every step of the way. |

I just hope we have enough time to recover. |
I keep saying he's the best passer I've ever coached. I think he took an affront to that. Now he's scoring. |
I know Denham was very tough on them going into the locker room. I could hear it. There were a lot of words being thrown around. |
I know what it's like to be A) at another level, and B) overwhelmed with talent. Tonight, it didn't come easy. ... We had to work harder than we have had to work recently. Sometimes scores can be very deceptive. |
I like being 16 again. |
