Robert Burton (1577-1640) was an English writer and fellow of Oxford University, best known for his encyclopedic book The Anatomy of Melancholy. (wikipedia)
I was happy with my role the last couple of years. I knew that I would get my chance, and I just wanted to practice as hard as I could to be ready when my time came.
I was happy to be able to contribute. It took a tough team effort to win tonight. We all played well.
They were playing on a whole other level than the first time we played them or since I've seen them. Their offense was working great tonight.
They are hard to guard on the perimeter as Pacific found out.
This is a good road win for us. But it was indicative of how we have played on the road - really good at times and other times not so good. We are striving to find some kind of consistency.
It's a matter of consistency. I don't think we are capable of putting guys away. But I have to quit worrying about it. Now, I'm only interested in winning games.
Last year our role was to practice against those players, and I always knew that that was my role. All the newspapers said that we lost Julian and we lost some other guys and we had no talent. But we always knew we could get here.
You want to try to have the best game you can have because you will never get the chance to play a home game here again. We played a good game, but we could have done better on offense and defense. We could have done much better.
I personally felt like I didn't play strong in the first half, and I was not going to have my season end that way. I decided I was going to come out in the second half and play the way I knew I could.
I told the team that I don't care who you are, if you're not guarding your guy, you're not going to play.
