We finished strong and that was the main thing.

My main thing was to come out aggressive on the boards without Marcus and Kenyon playing and hold the fort and I was able to do that.

We finished strong last year. You could tell through the year (how they were improving). We were much, much better at the end of the year.

In the second half, I got my wind. In the first half, I didn't have my wind.

I wish I could have played because I think they could have used me, but I've been saying that all year long. I'm not trying to make any statement or anything like that. I wasn't feeling too well. I always want to play, but that's up to him [Hill] and not me.

We've got to pick up some wins quick. The games are starting to pile up. We've got to get a sense of urgency.
