Him being here today really showed us he still cares. He's our team captain. ... He's such a big part of our team.

It was a big change. It's a whole lot more open now. Brian averaged 16 points for us, and losing that, we have to make up for it. Everybody was looking to be more aggressive.

Today they just blew us out of the water. When we didn't come out in the second half and put points on the board right away, it was pretty much over,

He pitched really well today. He's been efficient all year. When he goes to the mound, he will keep us in most games.

We had a tough season -- we had a lot of ups and downs -- but at the end, it was memorable for us.

He's a lot bigger, so he can get in there for the rebound. B.J. is not going to back off anybody. Him coming into the game, he's gong to be aggressive. That's what we need.
