great home illinois knock mess michigan overlook people played playing state teams ten wisconsin year
They're a great team, they played Michigan State tough, they've been playing well at home. They're one of those teams that people overlook and at the end of the year they always knock off a Wisconsin or an Illinois and mess up the Big Ten running.
care dangerous smart
They're a dangerous team. They're smart and know how to take care of the ball. We're going to have to play solid.
body coaching contest couple good handed job knew scouting shots staff tape tried watched worked
The coaching staff did a good job with the scouting report. They handed out the tape and I watched a couple of times. We knew a lot of his shots would be 3-pointers. We tried to contest those and put a body on him, and it worked out well for me.
reality play guy
Coach Bruce Weber told me in a meeting that all I have to do is play pretty well. The rest of the guys are doing well now. It takes a lot of pressure off Dee and especially myself. Luther and Deron and all the assists and rebounds and all the points that were lost, somebody has to make them up. In reality, you can't do all that.
boot clue hopefully lifting luckily next riding treatment turned within
It could have been broken, but luckily it turned out to only be a sprain. I got the boot off and I've been riding a bike, lifting and doing treatment to get stronger. I have no clue when I'll be back but hopefully within the next two weeks. I just need time, then I need to get back into shape.
confidence win
I thought we were going to come back and win it. You've always got to have confidence.
deal team
I will not be (strutting around) about it. It is no big deal as long as our team wins.
confidence friday game
If you play Friday and lose, then you play one game in two weeks. (Winning) is a confidence booster.
coming good job knowing limited
If you look down our bench, they're doing what we expected. Sometimes they have limited minutes, but they do a good job of coming through when we need it. They've done a good job of knowing their roles.
atmosphere heat job takes
It's a whole different atmosphere now. It takes a whole lot of heat off me. They make my job so much easier.
against crowd gets hit michigan played
Against Michigan State, we just played lackadaisical. Here, it's a different setting. You hit one shot, and the crowd gets into it.
good happens home rest
It's not a very good feeling. If it happens one more time, we're going home for the rest of the year.
answer care glad happy michigan questions state
I'm glad it's over. I wanted to go into Michigan State not having to answer questions about it. I'll be happy about it when I leave, but for now we have more important things to take care of.
outside post total work
I'm not going to be a total post player. I'm not big enough. I have to work on my outside game.
