I decided since it was my birthday I was going to shoot it anyway.

If I don't need to shoot the ball, I won't do it.

I guess they decided to give me a birthday present.

I got some confidence that I can play with the best. I can hang with the best in the country, but I still have some things to learn. I still have to get stronger. But I can go into practice with something to work on.

That was just a great block by him. It was definitely a big play.

I had a good game, but I was trying to lead my team to a victory. Even though we came up short, I had one of my best games on both ends of the floor.
