Rick Barnes Win Quotations

I wasn't expecting us to be a No. 1. I learned a long time to quit worrying about that. Regardless of where we're seeded, we have to go out and win games.

We have one game left. If we're good enough to win the league, we'll win it.

We proved against Kansas we can win without Daniel being a big presence for us on offense. You don't want to see that. But if it happens, in those 40 minutes, you've got to find someone else who can step up and get it done for you.

At this point in the season, you take a win any way you can get 'em.

We've played better than we've played tonight. (But) anytime you go on the road and win in this league, it's good.

I just want to win the next game we play, and then the next one after that. All I know is, we can't let down.

I told our guys that if we're going to be a good team, we've got to find a way to win when we're not playing well. We did that tonight.

It's a great league, and if you can win it, you've accomplished something.

I am obviously a better-looking guy than he is. If we play basketball he wasn't very good; but the reason he does all the loose-ball drills is because that's how he had to get on the court as a player. But if it got down to he and I playing, it won't be a rivalry. To have a rivalry you have got to split some games, and he would never win a game from me.
