led matters paths people
People have different paths in life. Quincy's led him to a different place. What matters is how you play.
battle
It was a long, dog-fight game, and it was just a battle the whole 45 minutes.
guess knew team
The kind of team they are, we knew they were not going to give up on our big lead. I guess we let up a little bit.
found
I found it unnecessary, and that's why I jumped back up. It's part of the game.
early experience guys toll took toward year
That took its toll toward the end of the season. This year we have a lot more guys to give us depth. If we give these guys experience early on, they'll be there for us later.
great help last line teammates trust
If I see my teammates getting beat, they can trust that I'm there for a last line of defense. Being there to help them out is a great feeling.
felt great helping quit upside worked
Once I quit helping so much, I was able to play him more one-on-one. That worked better. I felt he was a great player. I see a lot of upside for him.
business duke unfinished
I had a lot of unfinished business here at Duke University.
great
It's a great disappointment the way we lost.
happening maybe player shot thinking
Maybe he's thinking too much about his shot and his moves, but I don't see that happening in the Tournament. I think he'll be re-motivated and be the player he has been for us.
closer elbow saw throw tried
I saw him throw the elbow the first time, so I tried to go in a little closer to see if he'd do it again. He did it again.
allowing close couple credit guards help man past
Some of the guards were allowing their man to get past them to help me out with the triple-double because I've been close a couple of times. So I've got to give credit to my guards, I guess.
consistent defense needs picking playing
It's going well so far. He needs to be consistent on playing defense and rebounding. I think he's picking it up now.
serious
It wasn't serious basketball. We just put on a show for the fans.
