You can call me cocky, arrogant or whatever, ... I think I would have made that play.

This was a simple matter. A guy goes out on a field with a glove to play some ball - and the whole world went nuts.

He's just so fundamentally sound and so solid. For two years I've been telling him he can play like this and he's finally stepping up and doing it, as far as the rebounding and just finishing real well around the basket.

I just want to go out and play hard, try to contribute and push the tempo. We need to go in there and do what we need to do, play our type of game, and get a win.
