I just couldn't get the game against them out of my mind that we played at home. I thought we should have won it but we made some critical mistakes at the end. |
I knew the basket was around and I thought maybe if I tapped it up and it still didn't go in I'd have a chance to get the rebound. I was a little shocked. I didn't know if it was going to roll off or come back at me. |
I know I've got a few of them and something I'm proud of. |
I like it like that. |
I think I could have learned a lot from Sean. He would have been a senior and he would have been a veteran to learn from. I could have gotten tips from him and learned a lot. |
I think I played well offensively. I think my game was in a flow. Definitely it was fun, especially in the second half when we started coming back and making the run and started stopping them defensively. I didn't have (records) in mind. I didn't even know I had that many points. |
I think it helped give us some experience. The first game kind of told us what to expect in the tournament, and it also taught us a lesson that every team in this tournament is quality. We have to be ready to play. |
I think that there was a lot of pressure on the freshmen coming in with some of the guys leaving, having to play some big roles and get thrown right into the lineup early. But I think that's over now. I think we have experience under our belt now. |
I think that was real big. It was something that we stressed before the game ... it was something that we really focused on. |
I think we are ready. I think this season has prepared us for where we're going right now and I think we'll be ready to play. |
I think we just stayed within ourselves and didn't let any of the fans get to us. We got some turnovers and converted ... It is great. |
I took it as an insult. I mean, they come in and they tell us that. Some people didn't have us in the top 60. I mean, that's something. I kind of liked it, having our backs up against the wall, people telling us something we can't do, and we go out there and prove them wrong. |
I was aware of the clock. I felt comfortable with the shot. |
I was kind of surprised; I thought he'd be posting up the way he was for a couple of possessions before. But I saw him go up, and it looked like their guy (Swann) kind of fumbled the ball and was looking for someone to pass it to, and I stuck my arm out. |
I'm figuring out how tough college is. |
