Mike just stretched the defense out and it created more opportunities for me to drive. He came out so aggressive.

I wrestled my match. I put him on the defense while I stayed on the offense. I like to keep the pressure on and break my opponent's spirit while letting them know it's going to be my way.

That play was my fault. We ran a defense that we had run the last two or three years that shut them down. I guess I should have stayed in our base defense, because they only scored one more after that. I guess everybody learns a little something.

I just tried to hit spots and let my defense work for me. They came through.

I never had a problem shooting the ball since I began shooting at a young age. Dribbling and defense were the two things I worked on when I got to middle school. I practiced dribbling the ball a lot at that time, and I think all the practice helped me in the end.

He just knows how to pound the zone once he gets ahead. He just lets his defense work for him. He's a smart pitcher. He knows what he's doing.
