It was good to see us score so many points without those guys playing so much.

You play the game out and you play the game with your best players on the floor. I think Tubby would agree with that.

Tonight happened to be one of his nights. We become a very difficult team when he shoots like that.

I don't know if I've babied him or not. But it probably wasn't fair to evaluate him because he really was injured his first two years.

I have never had a player go from a 10-minute-a-game guy one year to being a team leader on the floor. It's pretty unusual, but so is he.

Our guys needed to be taught why we were losing, what was causing them to lose. I wanted them to see this is what we're giving up, and we're losing in overtime, we're losing by two or three points. Imagine if we shore this up, how good we can be.

To me, he's involved in every aspect of their offense. He can score off the dribble and he's gotten better at finding his own shot. And he's probably as good as any point guard in this league in terms of knowing when to shoot, when not to shoot, when to go inside and when to pull it out.

This is going to be another one to two weeks before he's back to probably feeling healthy. I would think that he would be available against South Carolina. How many minutes? What type of role? Will he be able to get back to his shooting form? I'm hopeful, but I'm not counting on that.

It was good to see those guys get rewarded out there. Our normal rotation guys enjoyed those guys' success on the floor.
