I?m not really worried about the points. I?m just trying to win?this (was) my last game, so I felt I had to contribute as much as possible.

Nobody wants to lose. You always want to win. Yeah, I was kind of disappointed with the loss but not at the effort that my teammates put out or my coaches. I was very pleased with them (on Thursday).

But I don't want to use anything as an excuse.

I have a lot of pride in what I do on the basketball court, but it's a team effort. If I can give back my 12 points and we could win, I would have done that. I was all about getting the (win) and trying to advance.
