ball bit break closer couple days decision drive finish game inside last mix offense people running send stronger time trying
That's a part of my game I've been working on the last couple of days in practice. I've been trying to drive the ball more and get inside and get closer to the rim and finish stronger that way. At times we're going to have to break off the offense and send the offense running through me. That decision is going to be up to me. I'm not going to try and do too much but at the same time I'm trying to mix it up a little bit so people won't know what's coming.
feels home legs playing shot sweet
Playing at home is always great. When you're at home sweet home, your legs are good, you feel the shot good, everything feels good. We really like that.
experience glad people
Man, it was a blast. I'm glad I was here for it. I got to experience it, and a lot of people don't.
biggest bury screens
J.J. is a big-time player. He started off hot, but Marcus was able to get through the screens and be there on the catch. I think that's the biggest thing with J.J., because if you're not there on the catch, he'll look you down and he'll bury it right in your face. That was the biggest thing that Marcus did.
game stop wins
We didn't really play our game today. That's something that we're going to have to stop doing if we're going to get big wins in the ACC.
forward looking
We still feel like this is a big-time game. We've been looking forward to this all season.
break coming fast good hard job key playing rookies running staying teammates
We're coming together. Playing hard is key for us and running the fast break is key for us. The rookies are coming in, the newcomers are coming in. We're doing a good job right now. My teammates are staying together, which is a good thing.
continue grow last team work
I don't know. For the most part, we've just got to continue doing what we do and doing what we've been doing for the last part of this season. We've got to continue to grow as a team and as individuals to make everything continue to work the way it's been working.
definitely fans mean satisfying wins
We've had some big wins on the road, and this was definitely satisfying for us -- to see their fans leave. Especially as mean as they are.
against capable game great hopefully job ourselves proving today
We did a great job of proving ourselves today against a very capable team. Hopefully, we won't be on the (NCAA) fence. But if we are, hopefully this will be a game they look at.
good job ourselves proving
We did a good job of proving ourselves today.
players type
Big players show up in big times games. That's the type of player he's been all year.
beginning best guards hurt knocking open presence rotation shots
At the beginning of the game, it was just me on him. At times, we would double, and our rotation wasn't the best it should be. Their guards were getting open shots and knocking them down. That hurt us just by his presence in there.
continue family guess half
My father's half of the family is from Maryland, so I guess that's the part that's in me. I continue to play well up here.
