I can say yes to that. We've been inching, inching, inching. We finally did it tonight. I think tonight was a turning point for what we can do as a team. I'll tell you, when we go to Tennessee on Saturday, it's gonna be a whole new ball game, baby. |
I had a lot of easy shots, but we played the best basketball tonight we played in a long time. |
I love it, man. I just went out there and played my best basketball. I had my teammates behind me and we played together and we played hard. We played the best basketball that we've played in a long time. |
I love it! I love it! We came up here and did our thing. We believed since day one that we were going to win this thing. I just love it! |
I love to play in front of Kentucky fans. It motivates me. In games where we don't have a lot of fans, we've got to bring our own energy. That's what I told the team. I'll bring the energy. |
I was so hyped and ready to play. I'm going there to have trimmed up before Saturday's game. |
It doesn't matter who we play. It just matters that we're playing. |
It showed that we could match up with any frontline in the league and be successful. |
It's going to be a good game because we're going to play hard-nosed offense, defense, everything. We're confident that we're going to win the ballgame. |
It's time to turn it up. Whatever happened in the regular season is over. When it was time to turn it up, we turned it up. |
It's very disappointing. We worked so hard, come this far. |
No. 1 was great. But No. 2 is the best, baby. Come back for another one. We love this thing. |
Until a final decision is made, I will concentrate on my academics and improving my basketball skills. |
We came into the tournament with a horrible record. It was a winning season, but everybody doubted us. South Carolina is this, South Carolina is that, we're underdogs, we're not going to do nothing in the tournament. Hey we're showing people right now we've got a lot of heart and we're tough. |
We came this far, so close, but everybody in this (locker) room believed it. The non-believers stayed in South Carolina. Everybody in this room believed we were going to win it. |
