I'm just going to tell the guys that it's put-up or shut-up now. |
I'm lost for words. I have no idea what's really going on with this team right now. It's kind of tough. I really don't know what to say to these guys. I don't know. It just hurts. |
In the second half we came out and attacked more offensively and locked down on defense. We made them turn the ball over a lot more than we did. (Terry) definitely stepped up and made big shots. It was his hometown so he wanted to come up here and play good and he did. |
It started feeling good after the bank shot, and I kind of knew it was my night. After that, the ball started feeling really good in my hands. It felt like everything I let go was going to go in, and most of the time it did. |
It was a blast ... to go out like that on senior night. That's a lot of fun, the way we played tonight. |
It was a breakdown. I actually told the whole team that we were going to switch everything, but I guess the communication factor didn't pull through as well as I thought it was. |
It was fun to make that pact. I knew it probably wouldn't last, and I can't fault those guys. Those guys are in a situation where they can make a living for their families, and they went out on top. They went out as national champions. You can't get much better than that. |
It was fun. I guess they had a good time with it. |
It was nerve racking. But at the same time, you just want to go out and do the best that you can. For the most part, just try to stay the same player that you've been all year. Don't try to do anything over your head or try to do anything spectacular. |
It wasn't anything like a slight to me. Those were just the facts. We got a chance to let other players play this year, and guys stepped up. Now if they say 'I'm coming back,' my average would be a lot higher than three points. |
It's so satisfying to know we could do things some people didn't think we could. In some ways, Coach Williams is doing a better job with this team than he did last season. I mean, last season he could sometimes sit back and watch the show. This year he is more calm and has had to teach more. And it has shown. |
J.J. is a big-time player. He started off hot, but Marcus was able to get through the screens and be there on the catch. I think that's the biggest thing with J.J., because if you're not there on the catch, he'll look you down and he'll bury it right in your face. That was the biggest thing that Marcus did. |
Man, he gets ridden more than a cowboy riding his horse. |
Man, it was a blast. I'm glad I was here for it. I got to experience it, and a lot of people don't. |
My father's half of the family is from Maryland, so I guess that's the part that's in me. I continue to play well up here. |
