R. Robinson Game Quotations

I was really pumped up for this game, because it's always a good game when we play against Sacred Heart. I knew I had to step up for us to get the victory.

My game doesn't revolve around being a try-scorer.

(Late Philippine dictator Ferdinand) Marcos is a good example, Mr. (Manuel) Noreiga of Panama. But this is all way after the fact. They don't get into the game soon enough to really make a difference.

Our game plan was to keep them from scoring in the paint. We didn't want to give them many looks in the paint and we didn't execute that.

I think we did a good job sticking to the game plan we started with. The kids came out and played. We weren't really concentrating on 3-pointers. We wanted to go inside and get easy baskets.

We were very flat in the beginning of the game. There just wasn't much energy. We didn't have any energy and we weren't executing any of our plays. But as the game went on, we started to pick things up. We played very well in the last 10 minutes and that's why we won this game.

We set the tone from the start of the game that we were going to play hard and make it tough on them. We were able to force them out of a lot of stuff that they were running comfortably in the first game.

As a sixth man, you get two opportunities to go in there and make some things happen. Probably once in the first half and once in the second half. As a starter, you're probably going to be logging a lot of minutes. You know you're going back in the game, but when you're coming off the bench, you have to do a really good job of trying to get yourself (going) in the game once you get in there.

Dale is a great player. He is one of those guys that always makes plays. When we are in the film room, we are always watching him. Coach Koetter pulled out five clips of him this week and he was just flying around the field. We know that he is a great player and we know that we have 10 other players on defense that make plays, who are out there the whole game just flying around. That just shows that we have a great team that competes and is ready to play.

They were pretty much the same play. On the first one, they left me to focus on Vince, and he did a good job of finding me. Vince, Richard, Jason (Kidd), they really command a lot of attention, and at that point of the game you're going to think that they're going to get the shot.

The motivation is easy. The other team is undefeated, and they have to be very good to get this far. When the game (against Thomasville) was over, our focus was on Southeast Halifax. We'll celebrate the other stuff when the season is over with.
