I couldn't believe when he hit that last 3-pointer from about 15 feet beyond the line, but what can you do? He was unbelievable. |
I didn't really come through the way I should have. I was just never able to get into the flow of the game. |
I don't think we did anything different in the way we went about our business of preparing for a game. We put in the hard work that's needed. We expected to make those shots. |
I feel that it is my best interest to declare for the NBA draft. The draft process will provide a great learning experience and will help me become a better player. |
I felt confident. Ever since the Marquette game, every day I've been working on my free throws before and after practice with the coaches. Apparently, I just need to continue working on it. It's probably the biggest weakness in my game right now. I let my team down. |
I just want everyone to know I'm going to make the right decision. Whether it's for me to stay or go, I'm going to make the right decision. |
I never really got into the flow of the game today. I struggled offensively and defensively. |
I never really got into the flow of the game. I struggled offensively, defensively. A few times I made some bad decisions. I felt I got the looks I wanted to get. I just didn't finish a few times. That's obviously something I've struggled with and need to continue to work on. |
I think that last 3-pointer he made was from 15 feet from beyond the arc. He's such a great player. When he's doing something like that, you just have to sit back and marvel at it. |
I think the double-double definitely shows how hard a player is willing to work on both ends of the floor. But there are a lot of other ways you can help your team that don't show up in the stats. |
I want to make sure that when the June 18 deadline comes, it will be my decision, not someone else's or any outside reason, whether I stay or go. |
In discussing my options the last couple of weeks with my family and Coach Dixon, I feel that it is in my best interest to declare for the NBA Draft. I will not hire an agent, leaving me the option to return to the University of Pittsburgh for my senior season. The draft process will provide me a great learning experience and will help me become a better player. |
It gives us a chance to play teams from around the country. I'm really looking forward to it. It's the first year we've done it, and usually during Spring Break we flatten off because we won't play. |
It goes to show how tough this team is and how much we believe in each other. No one gave up. No one had the thought in their mind that we weren't going to win. |
It's a great achievement. It's a great compliment to my team. I couldn't have done it without them. The support the coaches and my teammates gave me is probably the biggest reason this happened. |
