We were in tune and knew what we were supposed to do. We listened to Coach's (Bill Self's) tips the day before and actually thought about it during the game. It just comes down to being focused.
In big games, your best players have got to play ... Thomas played and Tyshawn played. Not too many guys in America who can play better than those two tonight.
I was going to put Bill Self somewhere ... But there wasn’t space.
This was a nice win for us. Baylor is terrific
As the story goes, Bill Self had embraced Annie Oakley’s work so much that after that first movie, he contacted John Moses and the two became friends
We’ve rebounded really well some games and we’ve stunk some games ... Iowa State beats us by eight in our building and then we do that tonight, so we’ve got to be more consistent there.
To miss 34 shots with that good of length and everything and only give up eight offensive rebounds
He’s become more a guy that understands the game and how he can take advantage of his skill set and his body
We played terrific ... That's the best game we've played all year.
When things go bad, he tries to make up for it by making a harder play on the next possession ... He has had to learn how to make sure that one turnover doesn't become two, and two doesn't become three. I've given him more freedom than just about anybody I've ever coached. He hasn't always handled that ...
We've only had one player who could get into the paint like him, and that was Sherron [Collins] ... And Tyshawn does it better than Sherron did.
We're one of the best teams, but we're five games in ... That would have been a big deal for us and our aspirations in the league to not win tonight.
He’s tried to become a student of the game
I struggled with him early in the season ... Not in a bad standpoint, but I didn’t think he understood how he should play to give us the best chance. It seems like to me that since Christmas the light has come on. He’s more poised, he’s not trying to score out of doubles. He just makes the game so much ...
Tyshawn is a little different. When you guys tell him he's really good, that's when I probably tell him he's taking too many shots
He’s still in Hawaii ... He didn’t get hung over. He got left behind.
You look at those teams coming back from Hawaii, nobody has looked very good. UCLA beat Pepperdine, otherwise everyone got their clock cleaned pretty good. We just didn't have it
It was the Hawaii hangover ... Too much pineapple juice.
We didn’t do anything to juice the building
I don’t know if I can say that totally ... Because we’re good at turning it over both inland and in Hawaii, so I don’t know if thats true.
He was OK ... He made some good plays late, driving the ball. He can play better. I’m convinced our whole team can play better.
He's relishing the role of being the guy ... He's always wanted to be that, but we had other guys.
In many ways he overachieved and exceeded our expectations ... He (had) not been as good a leader as he could potentially be.
