It's not the last game. It's far from our last game. We've won over 100 games. We know how to win. We're just going to keep winning. |
On the first one, I knew my man didn't want the ball as much as I did. I was going to get it no matter what. When I missed my free throw, they made a mistake and nobody boxed me out and it was right there for me. |
That move, I knew Hibbert was on me. He's not as quick as me so I tried to take advantage of it. Instead of trying to muscle him — that would have been a little too hard for me — I faced up and used my speed a little bit to get by him and got the foul. |
That part right there switches everything for me. That makes it 'game on.' I don't think about anything else from there on. |
That shot was a life-changer, not even a game-changer. That was the biggest shot I've ever seen in my life. It was amazing. |
That was probably one of the most memorable things. I'd say they're the best crowd for that. |
That's just something we do every day in practice. We go hard and somebody's going to fall. You just have to get back up and get back in the play. It comes from practicing with Coach Calhoun. He's never just going to let you lay there. |
That's what we needed. He has no conscience. And I don't care about it. Sometimes that's what we need, that kind of player. |
The big ones have to try and do their job and do what they're supposed to do — get as many rebounds as possible. (Stony Brook) played with a lot of heart and a lot of passion. |
The game just came to me, I just relaxed a little bit and let it come to me. I've been hearing from all of the coaches that I go in spurts and stops, so tonight I got it in my head to just dominate the game. |
The game just came to me. I just relaxed a little bit and let it come to me. |
There are so many athletes on this team. But everybody gives up a little bit to make the team better. |
They [St. John's] are probably going to be really hyped, but we are going to be hyped too. |
We did things underneath today that we couldn't do against Villanova because of our point guard. He sees things underneath and makes plays most other guards can't. |
We don't want to lose to them twice. It was our mistake. We need to come out and play a little tighter 'D' instead of being so loose. |
