Yeah, but over the course of an 82-game schedule, it's going to begin to wear a team down. We can't ask Louie to make those saves every night. It's putting a lot of pressure on him.

That's good, but over the course of an 82-game schedule it's going to wear a team down.

This team is on the upswing. I'm very anxious and very thankful to be a part of this for the next little while.

We've played a month of playoff games. I think for the age of our team, guys have done a pretty good job. We've battled pretty hard and are going to continue to battle. It's unfortunate we couldn't have a little slip-up.

This is a great schedule. We open at home on ESPN against Washington State. That game will set the tone. It's a tough, competitive schedule, and I'm excited about it.

We're a better team when I'm on the floor and up until the Houston game, I was playing well. The seniors need me out there. Hassan needs me out there to help out and I do a better job as far as disrupting teams when I'm out there and we're a better team when I'm out there. I think everybody can see that.
