I actually don't play any new video games except 'Call of Duty.' I'm addicted to 'Call of Duty.' It's the only game I need.
I think my putting could be better, my short game.
We're trying to make the playoffs, that's our goal. We think we can do it. It's not like we're six or seven games out.
We needed this one bad. We need these next two really. We're on the outside looking in right now. We've got 28 games left. We've got to make a run. Getting these two right here definitely helps our case.
We can be good. But consistency has been our problem all year - putting a stretch of games together. That's what we've got to do right now.
I just tried to go out there and contain him, ... It was my job today -- it was my job the last two games -- to shut down the other team's best perimeter player. I just took that as a challenge.
That's something we struggled with at the beginning of the season. We turn up our defense, and we execute. That's the reason we were losing games early on. We weren't doing things that got us to that point.
I was glad to see him sitting over there on the sideline.
We've just got to get some wins. We're still alive in this thing, the season's not over. We've still got a chance, whether it's a slim chance or not. If we keep winning and some teams lose, we're right there.
I've got a lot of favorite golfers.
Potential is the good of life -- action the secret key.
I'll take a nice assist any day over points.
My responsibility is to get people into the offense.
A lot of people have high expectations. I'm just going to do the best I can.
