We know they have a nice point guard. We have to contain him. We have to make them take tough shots and when they miss, rebound and get it up court.

I can't take any plays off. You have to have a heart and soul for the game. I take what the defense gives me. I don't force anything. One of my keys is to get my teammates open and create shots for them.

We pressure full court. We don't let teams walk the ball up the court and catch their breath. We're in their face the whole game.

I've done made a deal with the devil. He said he's going to give me an air-conditioned place when I go down there, if I go there, so I won't put all the fires out.

The good Lord put oil and gas there for us to find and use, and we'd better do it.

It scares you: all the noise, the rattling, the shaking. But the look on everybody's face when you're finished and packing, it's the best smile in the world; and there's nobody hurt, and the well's under control.
