He tried to go in the second half but could not go. I don't think it's anything serious. I'm not sure what it is. |
He was still calm. He would always scare the crap out of me. |
He was the biggest cheater the game has ever known. I told Jim he shouldn't be wearing glasses because he must have Superman vision. The ball would be two feet from me or Bernie, and there's Jim ? from the other end of the court ? making line calls. |
He'll have to come out of it tomorrow and see how sore it is. We'll know by walk-through (today). |
He's a cancer survivor himself, and he's lost relatives and close friends, like Jim Valvano, to the disease, so I'm not surprised he's gone at this the way he has. He's the captain of this ship, leading the way for the rest of us. |
He's a special guy. It's very difficult to have as much success as he's had, and still never change. |
He's as tough a son of a gun as I've ever coached. As a person, he is just what you want. He represents the kind of person and player you want to build your program around. As a player, he has become one of the great shooters ever to play here. And his attitude is tremendous. His work ethic and dedication are off the charts. |
He's going to be a really good player for us. He reminds me a lot of Antoine Walker in his skill level. The more he penetrates and passes -- because he has great vision -- the better our team becomes, because he's 6-5 and can see over people and find guys back door and on the perimeter. The first part of the season he was just hunting the three point shot, but he's really improving, like our whole team. |
He's got to work on his body, to get stronger for the next level, but he's terrific. He doesn't get rattled; he's seen probably every defense. |
He's just a prolific scorer. He is great at hitting runners in the lane and he has great range on his jump shot. And because you have to worry about some of their other players, it sets up very nicely for him. |
He's just very quick. He's fun to watch. |
He's missed eight or nine practices now. And he's tried to go. But we've now just got to get him healthy. |
He's not 100 percent. First it's the ankle, now it's leg cramps. He's been a little unlucky this year. |
He's not progressing and getting better like you would hope. The main thing is to just try to get him through the season. |
He's out of shape, but for the shape he's in, he played great. He hasn't played basketball in three weeks, but under the circumstances, he played awesome. |
