LaMarcus Aldridge Great Quotations

My decision didn't have anything to do with the new rules. It was all about my family and I sitting down and feeling like this was the best thing to do and the fact I'd be in a great position if I came out. I think an NBA team will be getting a great player, an honest player and a guy who wants to win and will put it all on the line.

Mike is doing great this year. He's a real physical guy and we're going to need that down the line.

When the football team came back to Austin, some of them were telling us what the experience was like and how great it was to win it all. We took what they said and decided that we wanted to try to do the same thing.

Our defense has done a great job the last couple of games. I think that has been a big difference from our play in the beginning of the season. That allowed us to go in and get some good buckets tonight, so we just kept pounding them in.

In no way was this a bad season for Texas basketball. We still did great things and broke a lot of records. We just didn't end it the way we wanted to. I feel disappointed. I had high expectations for us.
