 That's a good player. He knew he needed to pick it up. He knew he needed to take over and that was what he did. He handled the ball when he needed to. He made sure we attacked the basket when we needed to. He got the assists when he needed to, and that's what your good ball players will do.

 I wasn't 100 percent, but I knew the team (the Tennessee Titans) needed me out there. They needed a veteran presence. It was rough, but I knew it was something I needed to do.
