We're not roommates, but we room next to each other and we know we've got to do this together.

Guys were in the right spots all night. It was easy for me to find them. And they were making shots. I feel I've become quicker and stronger -- mentally and physically -- to deal with the college basketball game.

I'm happy coach Calhoun is beginning to trust me. I just want to keep it that way. I don't want to take a step back. My confidence is through the roof. Confidence is what you have to have at this level.

It makes the game so much easier for me. Playing with these guys has really stepped up my game to another level.

When it comes to basketball, I've never been nervous in my life. Why start now?

I can't wait for that first day of practice when everybody steps on that court and we all start on that goal of getting to the Final Four.
