There she is! The sleeper!

That's pretty bad. That's not going to get it done. That's just a lack of focus.

Up 50 or up 10 or two, we play the same way. The minute you change the way you play, the minute you get worse as a player. You don't get too many games in the Olympics. You have to take advantage of all of them.

I'm not surprised because obviously he deserved it for a while now. But just for him to actually be told he's actually in the Hall of Fame, I think, means a lot to everybody. When we all found out (Saturday) morning, we all got a smile on our face. We're just happy for him because he does so much for us and for the game and for Connecticut that it really is a great honor for him that he deserves.

It is an honor to be invited to the White House. I'm glad I can be part of this year's event, celebrating the importance of literacy for young people and adults.

We just didn't take care of business. The last two games we had an opportunity to make the playoffs on our own account, but as a group no one got it done. We didn't deserve to go.

The bottom line is we've got good basketball players so we make good basketball decisions and play really good basketball and we just got to keep that same focus and intensity.

Right now, when you can get fresh legs for down the stretch and get people into the game who haven't played all year, but do really well, that gives our team a lot more confidence.

It'll be a little strange. But it'll be fun.
