Fortunes made in no proverb

 Fortunes made in no time are like shirts made in no time; it's ten to one if they hang long together
  Douglas William Jerrold

 [Death] affects everyone a little differently, and you never know until it happens. I don't know. Clive's death really made me, I don't know, strong in ways I hadn't been in a long time. It made me feel like, I don't know, it's time to stop wasting your time. I can't waste any more time.

 I'm just happy that we'll make the playoffs. We're fortunate to have a team that has elevated itself to the playoffs. We've only had two years when the team hasn't made the playoffs. During this time, Chicago's only been in the playoffs once. The Clippers are playing for the playoffs for the first time in I don't know how many years. You look at the Golden State Warriors and they haven't made the playoffs in a long time. We've come a long way in a short time.

 That Delta attitude, it's been there a long time, it's what made them great, and its what made them hesitant to seek protection long ago.

 We got too far behind. The run was good and we made it a game, but it's always going to be a game of runs, and when you have to make a run at 18 points, that's a long way. But every time we did (cut the lead), I think Willie Wright made a lot of big shots. Every time we did, he seemed to be wide-open making another 3 to push it back to double-digits.

 I made (the decision) a long time ago. I'm a little long in the tooth and I'm not getting any younger. I don't think I'll be able to get it done at 40 years old in Vancouver. I'd love to do it. It's time for me to start my football coaching career.

 I think we did great. We made a lot of history. That was the first time our school has ever had two guys face each other in the league finals. It's the first time in a long time that we had four finalists. It's the first time that we had more than one champ since 1987. Carl is only the second sophomore to be a champ for Miller Place.

 That one hurt for a long time, ... It made me, over the course of that summer, sit back, try to investigate myself, try to see if there was something I was doing wrong, see if my goals were right. At that time, I decided my new No. 1 goal was going to be live long enough to coach my grandchildren.

 We got things done at the right time tonight. Every time we went down we kept our composure and got back into the game. We were able to get a lead and sustain it. We showed a lot of character being that those guys (Washington) already had their playoff shirts made up and wanted to wear them after the game. We didn't give them a chance to do that, now they have to do it somewhere else. We had an extra incentive to beat them and that gave us a great lift. We just did everything right tonight.

 They made plays, we didn't. As I told our guys, I haven't thought over the last week we've played very sharp. We've let teams hang around. This is a confidence league. Teams like this have the ability to beat you any given night. We kind of let them hang in and they made big shots down the stretch.

 We made some mistakes, but we were tough enough to hang in there. We got a big win to bring us back to 6-6 in the ACC. Winning is what you have to do this time of year. It doesn't matter how you do it or how it looks, but you have to win.

 He told me he made his decision a long time ago. So I felt good about that. I was the one they were going after the whole time.

 It made me very depressed, seeing him for the first time in such a long time, and only able to look at him for a minute when he turned his head.

 That's the first time I had it handed to me in a long time. You want to get back out there against that team and show them what you are made of and that you are capable of beating them.

 Two games in a row (against Washington). At their place the first time we played them, T.J. made a big defensive play - he got an offensive foul. He made the steal this time.
