I think he's the leading scorer in the conference. It would definitely be a good challenge for me. I'm always looking to take on challenges and he's a great player.
That's what we worked for the entire year. That's your aim: being able to get a good seed and play in front of your home crowd.
The coaches told me to go out there and be smart. I thought those drives were smart drives. I was under control and my teammates put me in a good position.
They pass up good shots to get great shots. You have to be ready to play defense for the entire shot clock.
It was scary at the moment, but our guys understand that we are capable of anything with any of our players on the court. It gave other guys a chance to step up into big roles. It was an opportunity for other guys to get good experience.
We weren't getting any movement. They do a good job packing the middle and stopping things inside. Once we got moving, it was a lot easier to get baskets.
I did a lot of other things besides scoring the basketball. I got my guys a lot of open looks. I played good defense. I think I had a good all around game, but I attribute a lot of my game to my teammates. The way they pushed me and motivated me to keep playing hard.
