    Larry 'let' me be a part of the offense? ... That was deep right there. When I'm on the floor, I've got to be part of the offense. There's just no other way to have it. I think Larry did a great job of throwing little wrinkles out there. He called my number here and there and got me the ball in places where I can be effective.

    A big ball of energy. I'm happy to see him back out there. I know it was probably eating him up, sitting on the sideline and watching games and wanting to be out there. It's going to help the team a whole lot, especially with the energy boost.
