I saw the double team coming, I tried to beat it and go faster.
I was trying to set a screen for Andre Miller and just get open. I saw the double team coming and I just tried to beat it and go fast to the basket.
The whole series was kind of an embarrassing moment. They didn't just beat us by two or three points in the games they won. They beat us by, like, 20. That's embarrassing.
I can't worry that we didn't get him. It was rumors all along.
I couldn't sleep last night due to the pain. I tried to go out there and play tonight, but by the third quarter it started tightening up on me.
I wanted to play. (But) it's nothing I can be upset about.
After this road trip, I think it will say a lot about us and where we stand.
I don't even know what happened out there, it was all so fast.
(Karl) just told us management had to make a decision.
I'm just excited about the project. I think that we are going to have a lot of fun to come.
I take this as motivation. It's nothing to be upset about. I can't take away and nobody else can take away what I've done this season.
I was edgy my first two games just to get out there and start my career. You saw me settle down more than I did the first two games.
They kept hitting me in the side of the ribs. Just in the heat of battle. I twisted it (in the third), and then I twisted it again. I wanted to come out, but I didn't want to come out. We were trying to make a run.
My team needed me out there to get some things done. At halftime I just told them it's time for me to wake up and just go out there and win the game.
