They got a lot of easy baskets and rebounds. That is what killed us.

We have to be mentally prepared for every team we play. If we play a team who has a big name on their chests, then we are going to come out ready. But if we play a team who doesn't have a big name or a star player, we have a hard time coming out ready.

Coach showed he believed in me. So I had to believe in myself.

I don't know, you go through what you go through. You handle adversity, and I think it made me hungrier.

I always get up for every game, but this game is especially big. It's a do-or-die thing. This could be (decide) whoever wins the regular-season championship.

I'm a point guard, so I want to see everybody else score and be happy. I don't necessarily need to score at all. I could be happy with zero points as long as it was a team game and everybody contributed.

We're looking forward to the tournament. We still believe that if we play with effort, we can beat anyone. We just can't have those 2-3-minute lapses.
