He's not a stiff at all. So he's able to make plays up high. |
I could hear them yelling to each other to watch out for me. They were matching up with us pretty good. |
I definitely feel a bond with Jordan. Him being from L.A., I got plenty of opportunities to see him play. I definitely knew I'd be coming into a school with another talented guard, and you have to enjoy that. |
I definitely think we're playing our best basketball – definitely defensively. We know what's allowing us to win games right now. |
I don't think a lot of people understand our defensive intensity. It's something you can't watch. It seems like we're playing normal defense, but we're not. We're always rotating, helping out and contesting every shot. |
I felt for him. He has no reason to cry. He's a great player who played a great game. |
I have to credit my coaches for that one. We watched plenty of film on (Carney) as a team. Whenever I face a guy who's the other team's top scorer, I'm always well-prepared. |
I haven't (studied) much yet. I'll do some when we get back from practice. |
I knew all along this team could be at the top and remain at the top, because we definitely have the personnel. If we put our mind to it, play 'D' and do all the right things, play for each other, we shouldn't lose. |
I knew I couldn't relax for a second against him. I couldn't let him get open for a 3 or drive for a dunk, because I knew that would ignite their whole team. |
I saw him laying there in tears. I felt for him a little bit. He has no reason to cry. He should definitely keep his head up. That's easy to say when you won the game and your opponent lost. But I just really wanted to see him still in a good mood. |
I saw him lying there in tears and I just felt for him. He has no reason to cry. He's a great player and he's going to have a great career. |
I think the extra two days we had to prepare were huge for us. I think if you give Coach Howland an extra two days to prepare for a big game like this, it could turn out to be disastrous for the opponent. |
I wanted to congratulate him on a good year, but I didn't want to do anything dramatic, like hug him for an hour. |
I was just trying to mainly guard the 3-point shot. But, he's (Steele) so quick, he made a sudden stop and gained enough space to get a look. Fortunately, it just fell short. |
