either knows point
He knows how to take over a game. He's not only a point guard, he's a scorer. Either he's going to score, or he's going to get it to someone else to score.
kindness lead point pulled
We pulled it out in the end, but it shouldn't have even got to that point with the kind of lead we had.
point reached
It was our mistake. I think we've reached a point where we have everything under control.
best good looked points protect saw scoreboard short smile took whenever
I feel really good right now. Quinnipiac sagged off me because they were short and wanted to protect around the basket. So I took a lot of jumpers and they fell. Whenever I was open, I made the best of it. At one point, I looked at the scoreboard and saw 20 points by my No. 11. That put a big smile on my face.
against guards plays point sees today underneath
We did things underneath today that we couldn't do against Villanova because of our point guard. He sees things underneath and makes plays most other guards can't.
instead lose
We don't want to lose to them twice. It was our mistake. We need to come out and play a little tighter 'D' instead of being so loose.
athletes bit everybody gives team
There are so many athletes on this team. But everybody gives up a little bit to make the team better.
ability body confidence definitely knack playing smart
I have a lot of confidence in my shot-blocking ability. It's definitely timing, and you have to be smart enough to keep your body away. I have a knack for it. I always like playing defense.
ahead chess couple game happen knows moves playing
He knows what's going to happen before it happens. It's like playing a game of chess with him. He can see a couple moves ahead and orchestrate the game.
beginning couple
At the beginning there wasn't a lot of talking. But after a couple years went by we got a little more comfortable with each other and there was a lot more talking.
again final four goal people proud win
I've come a long way a lot more than a lot of people probably thought was possible. If we can get to the Final Four again and win it, that would be something to be proud of. That's the only goal now, the only one.
cut open wide
It was wide open every time. Just cut to the rim, and it was right there.
centers coming defense excellent gets help plays power scores
(Adrien) is a big help with our power forwards and centers coming in off the bench. Without him, it?s going to be a big adjustment. He comes in and gets a lot of rebounds, plays excellent defense and scores when he has to.
harder team understand
As a senior, I understand that every team comes at us harder because we're No. 1.
