We're a confident group of guys. We definitely think that we can go all the way.
asked freshman himself knew point practice questions remember saw stepped stopped supposed time
I remember the first time he stepped into the gym, a freshman with this far-away look on his face. During practice he stopped and asked me questions like, 'What am I supposed to do on that play?' and 'Where am I supposed to go now?' At that point I knew he wanted to make himself a better player. I saw it from Day 1.

I'll give him credit. He knocked down a big-time shot.

I know for a fact the Texas Longhorns are going to show up. And that team is a great team.
cheap looking picked spots watch
I picked up fouls that weren't smart. A lot of those were cheap fouls. When I was on bench, I could watch the flow. Once I got back in the game, I was looking to where I could pick my spots and where I can take some opportunities.

I had never played in a dome. I was a little like a deer in the headlights.

I'm the kind of player, if I'm 1 for 55, I always think 56 is going in. I never lose my confidence.

I really looked up to him. He pretty much overshadowed everything. He really just opened my eyes. It takes a big person to do that.

I'm a confident player. Coming into every game, I'm thinking it will be my night.

He's not afraid to take those kind of shots. I think he should take them more often.
