I didn't go out that much or hang out with my friends too much because of my family. I really wanted to spend some time with them because last year I spent my time with the national team, so this year it was a chance to spend some time with them.

I feel sorry for our fans, but I guess that's what happens.

I guess we've been mentally strong - tonight and the whole week. We did a good job in beating two pretty good teams.

Last year they won the national championship, this year they lost six players, but they're still playing pretty good. It's a good experience for me playing that big of a game.

I thought they fouled me, but the ball went in and out. That happens.

They're going to focus on defense. They're going all the way this year.

I did some stuff that I can really use in a game, like the way I'm posting up. I can read how the defender is playing me. Whatever I'm doing in the post, I can get an open shot. Also, on my shooting, I can use more legs, and those are small things that can help you a lot.

We just played harder defense and did a better job in transition.

Arizona and North Carolina are if not the two best programs then at least in the top five in NCAA history. It's going to be a game of history with coach Olson and Roy Williams.
