Alando Tucker Chance Quotations

I'm always shaping my game into what the team needs. This year we really need me going inside and drawing fouls. I figure I'll always have a chance to do that.

We have to close out as strong as we can. It's still a possibility, there's still a chance for us to win a Big Ten championship.

We have to close out as strong as we can. It's a chance for us to get a Big Ten championship, depending on how things go. We have to make sure we close out hard and do everything possible as much as we can to put ourselves in position in these last games.

We talked about old times, about high school. James is a good friend of mine. Whenever we get a chance to meet and talk we do. So, it was along the lines of that and just wishing each other good luck.

I want all our guys to realize that if we get a chance to play in the NCAA tournament, that's our last chance. If we lose then, there's no more looking back and saying, 'OK, we can get it back.' You can't get it back. If we have 40 minutes left (in) our season, we have to cherish that. Everybody has to be ready to play. We have to just think we can't get that back. So we have to play with that urgency.

You never know what's going to happen in the Big Ten. We have to close out as strong as we can. There's still a possibility for us to get a Big Ten championship, depending on how things go. We just have to do everything we can to put ourselves in position to hopefully have a chance to win.
