Matt Haryasz Guys Quotations

Chris stepped up big. A lot of guys stepped up big for us and that was huge.

That was a scheme to make someone else beat you. I tried to get the ball to the open man. In the second half, I kind of got out of rhythm and started forcing shots. ... I have to try to get in a better position early. ... Other guys are going to have to hit shots and I'm confident they can do that.

I think they threw every single guy they had at me last night. Every time I touched the ball I had guys all over me. ... UCLA did a lot of double-teams. When that happens, I need to look for the open man quicker. They were real aggressive with their hands up. I had been doubled before. They did a good job rotating and cutting off the easy pass, but part of that is on me. I've got to get the ball out.

The guys have been doing a good job of getting me the ball where I'm in a position to do something with it. Another thing is confidence ... I'm playing about as confident as I've ever been in my entire career. I feel really good about how I'm playing.

I could tell that the team is starting to change. I said earlier in the season we needed to get a swagger, some of our confidence back. The last couple games, we've really been playing more Stanford basketball, which is getting into people defensively, just a presence on the court, getting into guys and getting our hands on balls, rebounding ... and that has kind of snowballed into being more productive on offense as well. It gives us something to build on heading into the Pac-10.
