Richard Jefferson Trying Quotations

I was just trying to joke and be myself. Tom is always crazy and I like to joke around. That's one of the good things about this school. You were able to be your own person and put in your own personality and yet you were part of a team.

We don't concern ourselves with what other teams are doing. Because if you worry about who's winning, who's losing, trying to do all this math, sometimes you can get caught up in all that.

We did a good job early on Dirk. It was just a matter of trying to contain him.

I let us down in a small way. I was disappointed that we lost, that I got thrown out, but I wasn't out here trying to prove anything.

He's extremely confident with our team. He knows our schemes, he knows our coaching staff, he knows what we're trying to accomplish and that's why he's been effective.

It's always your move next. What are you going to do to make an adjustment to our counter? What are you going to do now that we have played this type of lineup? It's all about trying to find an advantage, especially with two evenly matched teams.

I try to be as efficient as possible.
