As far as the fans, I can say that the NCAA Tournament is really about the Cinderella story. People look forward to having the underdog come up and win. Fortunately for us, we didn't allow that to happen. |
As ridiculous as this sounds, you want to keep him under 40. |
But as newcomers, we have felt like the guys who crashed the party a little bit. That's how they look at us, as those boys from New England. |
Great program. Great tradition. Coach K. There's a lot to be said for Duke and its accomplishments. |
He accidentally hit me, but at the time, I didn't know because I wasn't paying attention. We sorted it out pretty easily, and it didn't have any effect on the game. |
He comes to me when he's struggling and says not to worry, because he has one more in him. He said that tonight. |
He did a good job of sticking with it. He scored in bunches even when he wasn't getting as many touches as he would like. He stayed focused out there and composed. That's what an All-America does. You can't take anything away from him. He's a veteran that stuck with it. |
He had some things to say because we weren't playing up to our potential. This meeting, he was really animated. Me and Craig, we've been here the longest. Neither one of us has seen him like that. |
He likes to take those kinds of shots. As the year has progressed, he's starting to understand the situations of the game a little better, and that's all we needed him to do. From day one, he could play the game with the best of them. |
He likes to take those shots. |
Him putting so many years into grooming that style, I don't think he's going to cut it. |
I am sure we will be prepared [for Montana]. We don't have time to be tired. We don't have time to worry about the altitude or how much oxygen we are getting or anything like that. We just have to continue to work hard because you never know it could be the last game. |
I don't want some other guy skipping across the lobby of his hotel in excitement because someone beat us with a shot like that. |
I kind of think the North Carolina schools are going to get together and root against the New Englanders. There's going to be a lot of fans down there who don't want to see the newcomers do well. |
I really love my hair, but I had to do it. The rest of the team did it and I can't let my teammates down. |
