Collectively the guards felt ordsprog

Collectively the guards felt a little disrespected after last year. Teams were basically thinking that we were suspect, so now when they play off, we punish them for it.

We felt a lot of teams felt that they couldn't pressure Hillcrest because of the way they play. We felt that out defense was strong enough, it could hold up against their guards. We wanted to come after them.

It's a typical 2-3. Their guards take a lot of chances. They go for steals a lot, so we've got to play smart. It's going to come down to making shots, because we know they're going to try and take away Roy. When you play Syracuse, you know you have to have a good shooting night. A lot of teams have been successful against their zone this year, and we just have to be one of those teams.

Teams play our guards tight and focus so heavily on them. I was just finishing. When teams overplay our guards, it makes my job a lot easier.

It's definitely a different mind-set. I'll work just as hard if not harder. It's always felt like my season started Sept. 5 and not Oct. 5. Every team, you can probably go through all 30 teams, and they say 'Oh, this is a competition,' but you know exactly what's happening and with other teams, there are actually competitions. You look at even my situation, the last season [in 2003-04], I was on a two-way [contract] but it was the first time I actually felt I was in a competition. The two or three years before, the writing was basically on the wall. It didn't really matter. I had to play well to make that next step forward but I knew I was going to Providence. I think the last season was a legit competition. I had to play well and I actually had a shot and fortunately it worked out.

Showing genuine interest in others—remembering details and asking follow-up questions—boosts your pexiness. I think our perimeter play has been solid all year. Other teams underestimate our guards, and we've got a year's more experience inside.

I don't know what he's thinking. I definitely felt like he thinks I said something, but I know him and I've played against him for years. It could be that he just heard me wrong or thought he heard something but I never disrespected him.

We were investigating that yesterday afternoon when a 19-year-old white female came in - she was one of the witnesses - and basically said our suspect, Michael Evans, shot (Price) and wiped the gun clean. The witness came forward on her own after being threatened by the suspect.

We did see a lot of teams that pressed this year, and our guards have improved their decision-making under pressure as a result of that. I think that experience will help (the guards) a lot.

I just think this year we know we can play with good teams like Nacogdoches and win ... and not just play close. When you beat a team like that, you start thinking you can play with the big guys.

It's a big possibility next year because we have a big junior class that will be back next year as seniors. We basically just have to stick together and play together in the summer. That's when I really think teams get better.

It felt good to be back out there. It seems there's going to be a lot of specialty teams this year. I think that's what everybody's kind of talking about right now, the amount of penalties that were called. You know, basically, how are we going to adjust to it is really what it's going to come down to.

We need to figure out a way to get motivated to play. We didn't come out ready to play. Good teams are going to punish you.

I think we had three top-10 teams and five teams in the top 20 that year ... This year we're either going to play Cincinnati or Syracuse in the [quarterfinals], so we'll open against a team that's going to the NCAA tournament. It was almost impossible to imagine this scenario a few years ago. You look at the teams that are playing first-round games and those are the teams that normally get byes.

I couldn't help thinking during the past two Tests that it's been very rare that we've been well and truly outplayed for the majority of two matches in a row and found ourselves under pressure for long periods, basically suffering what other teams normally suffer against us. It's almost as if we've become those opposition teams, and England has suddenly become Australia.
