On what allowed them to score 109 points during the game …
“The patrol report was great because it helped us to know who could protect who and who was struggling to move their feet to the other team. We got our moves and we had to change them a little bit because the South Carolina coach, he’s a good coach, we had to turn around a little bit for him, and then they fought to protect us, so we just penetrated. When Sharife penetrates, they have to shoot at him or he will finish on the edge. “
About the team mentality after losing the lead to Arkansas …
“Especially at the break, when we saw that we were awake, I don’t know how much, so, entering the locker room, I thought, ‘Man, we can’t ruin that leadership.’ Going to the locker room we all got together and we kind of kept our energy together, jumping, happy, keeping our same energy to get out in the second half. I believe so. “
In his own offensive performance …
“It was fun. I really don’t care much about having a great scoring game. We were struggling to win and that was good for me, I just wanted to win. I know that BP told me to be more aggressive and do more things, but only the team’s victory was big for me today. ”
Scoring laps and rebounds …
“South Carolina is leading the league in offensive rebounds, so we know that we had to eliminate them, so when we received the rebounds, we know that they were bad at recovering in the transition, so we knew that we had to be eliminated. I know that in the transition, Sharife is unbelievable, so he will find someone or he will reach the edge. ”

About what it means to accomplish a lot during the game as a young team …
