He was one of the catalysts of the team. We would not have gone far without him. His determination when he has the ball is equivalent to national team players.

To all the positions, I just bring the determination to win. Me being an unselfish player, I think that can carry on to my teammates. When you have one of the best players on the court being unselfish, I think that transfers to the other players.

He was the man of the match. He understands this game well, and he came out ready to play today.

We're just looking at this as another step to the final four. We're talking like this is another stop toward our goal.

Our record is totally misleading. We're a final four team. There is talent in this program. The one thing I told the players is that I don't want to see nothing short of a state championship right now.

I just told the referee to cut it right there. We didn't have enough players, and it was going to be a blowout. We played four games with only 11 guys. They were physically exhausted.
