But I decided it was just going to make me work harder. I feel I've got something to prove. |
Chris Paul has been the guy for months now, but people want to see who's that second or third guy. I think Chris Paul, he deserves it. But I think I have a shot at being runner-up if I keep doing what I've been doing. |
Coach [Jim] Calhoun is a big-time coach, and he develops players, ... I need to work on everything to get to the next level. He's going to get the best out of me, and that's what I need. |
He was just saying, 'Give me the ball. I'm going to take this rookie. He can't guard me,' ... You know, typical NBA stuff. |
He's done. He shouldn't even be out there. |
He's really important. I think he's going to be the difference maker to see if they can go to the Final Four. When Denham brings it, he's a hard player to stop. |
I actually felt like I was in a video game, out there, no pressure at all. |
I actually felt like I was in a video game. I was out there (feeling) no pressure at all. |
I caught fire and the guys just found me in the right place. The zone feels good, it feels really good. It feels like you can't be stopped. |
I didn't want the season over so soon. Next year I will come back ready, I'm not a rookie anymore. I learned a lot starting out 1-15 and digging out of that hole. It was a tough year though. |
I didn't want the season to be over so soon. I had fun. I know what to expect for next year. |
I heard them, I heard them, ... But I blocked everything out, and I was really confident when I stepped to the line and knocked them down. |
I just tried not to let what happened in Atlanta snowball, I tried to come out really hard, set the tone early, and the guys got the win. I can't get satisfied, I have to keep going. Thing about the NBA is I can have 24 points now, but what am I going to do the next game? |
I tried to come out hard, set the tone early and the guys got the win. We played all four quarters and we won every quarter except the third, which we tied. |
I was thinking about the draft and once I went through the whole process, I decided I'd be better off going to college, ... I just thought I wasn't ready to live the NBA lifestyle. |
