"He's the key to their team. If he can't get going, it'll be a tough night for everybody."
Brandon Roy
"I don't think it crossed my mind we were going to lose that game. I'm still kicking myself. For the first time in basketball, I feel sorry for myself."
"They're so experienced and so talented. We're definitely going to need them to make some mistakes to win."
"That's going to be a struggle between two teams trying to impose their wills on one another. If they can get it in the half-court set, they'll have the advantage."
"(Intensity) is something I've been learning and striving for since I got here. Coach is always on me about my intensity level. He told me I was talented but I had to pick up my intensity level. In the past, I would often defer. This season I wasn't allowed to do that. He had to stay on me to make sure I bring it every night. Now I'm seeing that all the hard work paid off. Playing hard all the time can be rewarded."
"I was actually frustrated throughout (non-league). I was like, man, I can wait until I can start putting my print on the team."
"Washington is taking a huge step in being a power program."
"We just totally turned the page on that Thursday game. It was important not to come in here and worry about making shots, and we did a good job of that."
"When I was a kid I dreamed about this. It's an incredible honor to be recognized nationally like this."
"Lately a lot of people have been giving me respect. You know when they don't give it to me, I just use it as motivation. Now that they're saying I'm the most complete player, I have to look for other motivation."
"In my heart, I would have liked to have seen him come to Washington because I feel like the things I've been through here have made me not only a better person but a better basketball player. You come to college and nobody looks at you as a star anymore. You're just another guy on the team, and that would have been great for him."
"I'm a big fan of Dee Brown. He's the heart and soul of that team and he's the first guy we've got to stop."
"I think that's a credit to all past Husky teams. I'm happy to be part of it."
"This is probably the best game that I played and I was forced to do more. In years past, I've always had Nate [Robinson], I've always had Will [Conroy]."
"I was like, 'Does he just randomly walk around? They were like, 'Yeah, but not today, it's past his bedtime."
"I'm just happy we are in the race for the Pac-10 title again."
"This is the first night me, Bobby and Jamal got on the same page. We need to lead this team. I think tonight we did a good job."
"The consistency of fans now is so much better. I think it has a lot to do with our play, and we're doing it together. The better we get, the better they get."
"I'm still kicking myself because I think for the first time in basketball, I felt sorry for myself. Like, 'Man, I did everything I could to win and then that happened.' It took me a minute to get my engine going. I think Bobby [Jones] felt the same way. I think Jamaal [Williams] felt the same way."
"He's made me a better player over four seasons. All summer, we played pick-up basketball and we'd match up against one another. When I penetrate to the basket, there are times when he stops me. His ability to guard big men and small guys definitely helps."
"I think we just want to keep playing good basketball. We don't want to go the Pac-10 tournament and have a terrible game and have that be the last thought on our minds heading into the NCAA tournament."
"It's fun playing Oregon. It's an up-tempo game. Hopefully, we'll make some shots."
"They were physical, they were banging me. Coming off screens, they were grabbing me. It was one of those games."
"We can't give up hope. I've started off 0-5, so it doesn't get any worse than that. Five-and-four is not bad at all. We just have to keep scrapping and keep fighting and know that if we win this game we've got two games at home and chance to go to 7-4. The future is still bright for us."
"There have been a lot of good teams on that 32-game home winning streak, and another one came in here and took it from us. It is the only way it should end, it shouldn't end with us losing by 15 or us losing to a bad team."
"We're still kind of kicking ourselves for those two losses at home. But we got two really big wins on the road and now we've got to go back and defend our home court, like we usually do."
"There's a lot of good teams on that 32-game home win streak. Another one came in here and took it from us. It's the only way it should end."
"It's awesome that top players from the state of Washington with a year difference in age are considered top players in the country. That says a lot for the state and how we've come along as basketball players. When I was a kid, I dreamed about this."
"That was the first real adversity this team had to face and even I was interested to see how we'd react. We had bad chemistry [during the losing streak]. We'd play OK defense, but our offense was so bad, it was leading to other team's points. Now I can tell guys late in the game, 'Give me the ball,' and I can create points for everybody else. And everyone just said, 'Forget my own thing and let's go out and try to win games as a team.' Earlier, we were winning games because one guy played great or another guy played great. But now we are winning as a team."
"We've got a lot of experience. When I was a sophomore, we were just excited to be there. Last year, being a one-seed, we just wanted to live up to expectations. This season is fun because no one is really saying much about us. We have the chance to go in there and surprise some people. We almost get to play the underdog role."
"I said, if we didn't prove to ourselves today that we can play with the best teams in the country, then you're just not a believer. I think we just showed the world we're a good team and we're here to stay."
"That was the smoothest, easiest 25 I've had this year. I wasn't fighting against any of my teammates to get points. I was just kind of rolling in the offense. And Jamaal got his."
"It makes it a lot smoother. At the beginning of the game, it's more my time. Then when Jamaal comes in, I can kind of concentrate on other areas and it's more his time."
"Coach knows that when the game gets tight, a light switch goes off in my head."
"Coach said just push it up the court. Push it and pull it. That's what I did."
"Last year we had huge confidence because teams didn't know how quick we were or how fast we were going to play."
"We control our own destiny now."spo
