It's a very big game next week for us. They got done last week and they're a very proud side, Brisbane. They've got a lot of good players and I think they'll bounce back.

No man is too big to be kind...but many men are too little.

I didn't need much time to prepare, we've got so many leaders out on the ground. But he (Ball) will be back next week, he was just a little bit sore.

Spencer doesn't have to shoot and score to make plays for us. He's our leader. I've said that before and I didn't know he wasn't scoring because he does so many other things so well.

It's unambiguously good news for Japan. It signals the dark days of deflation are behind us.

He's a special kid for us. You've got two Division I basketball players. You've got E.J. Jones getting all the attention in football and Joe is already getting the attention. Then there's Mark doing his job every day, coming in and just putting in the hard work just like everybody else and not really asking anything in return.
