Famous Quotes & Sayings

Carroll Dawson

After a decade of starring in this league, Dikembe established himself as one of the league's top reserves last season. Deke gives us rebounding and defense off the bench and he also serves as a personal mentor to Yao Ming. He is a valuable contributor as well as a great teammate.

Personal fouls, sloppy plays and penalties, that's not us. I'm glad we came back and played like us in the second half.

Louisville did a great job. We were lucky to win. We played more like Virginia Tech in the second half and I was proud of that. We gave great effort.

David Chamberlain

People who haven't yet purchased camera phones are very enthusiastic about all the uses for their images.

I've played with those guys over the summer at individual tournaments. I see them everywhere.
