Very few players are able to maintain the pace he's on. I don't think anybody I've ever had can get as hot as he can get. Ben (Gordon) and Ray (Allen) are probably better shooters, but nobody gets as hot as he does. He's done that against a whole bunch of folks. It's not the first time.

Vin Lananna

What a great, great performance. That's a big breakthrough for her, and I think there's more in the tank there.

We're making progress, we're getting better. Our kids are fighting and working hard, and they'll keep doing that. I'm pleased with our effort.

Dave Sarachan

We respected Rochester from the opening whistle, and they were a tough team tonight. We knew that it could go that far and I was proud of my team after conceding a goal for hanging in there.

Drew Thompson

We're getting used to the pressure we're going to face all year long. I'm pleased that we keep finding a way to win. But we didn't play close to our potential tonight.

Stan Conte

We're going to play a lot off of what Barry tells us, because he's the only one who knows how his knee is going to feel. It's always going to be a day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to- month thing. You can't help but be pleased that he came here, he did some good stuff, he left, and we'll see how it is tomorrow.

Gene Chizik

What we're really pleased with is that they played hard. We tried to execute our defense, but we played a lot of base defense. Obviously, we have a lot of work to do on some things. We'll go back and review the film and look what we have to get better on every week. Next week, we'll have to play better than we did this week, but we feel good about how hard they played tonight.

P. J. Harvey

When we closed there was a general feeling of shock and dismay. But people will be pleased with what has happened. I'm looking forward to watching this sleeping giant wake up.

Jon Abernathy

We wrestled a very solid match. We're pleased with our progress and we have two weeks of practice to sharpen up before the VOL Tournament.

Luol Deng

Fred Hassan

We remain determined to become a high-performance competitor for the long term -- and over the past several quarters we have made steady progress toward that goal.

Manson Hill

We're going to need them to play with the same kind of fire and emotion against Carrollton that they did in the fourth quarter against Elbert. They have been leaders all year. This senior class has shown a lot of leadership all year and we're going to need it.

M. Wolfe

We're going to go into Albany and try to go 6-1 (in quarter points). If we can do that then we can come home to Boise in front of our great fan base. I think 14 or 15 quarter points is what it's going to take to get into the finals.

Katie Leclerc

I wasn't sold on 3-D until it was in my own home. The images jump out at you, even more so than in the theater, because you're in tighter quarters and you're closer to the TV, so it feels like the depth is very dramatic.

We've always tried to reflect people's diverse music collections. We don't want to dismiss our core in any way, but . . . as great as Widespread Panic has been to us and has been a really big part of what we've done, we can't have Widespread Panic every single year.

Alex Smith

We're so close, and sometimes the scores may not reflect that, but we're so close to being competitive in this league. There's a lot of things we're doing better now that we weren't doing at all earlier in the year. Coach always says it's a marathon, not a sprint, but that's the truth.

Ron Dittemore

We're going to pause and reflect upon the crew of Columbia, their lives, their contributions, their memory, and although we cannot stop our investigation and the recovery effort, we will pause in this location to take the time to reflect upon their lives, their sacrifice.

Stefan Worrall

What we're seeing now is a very sharp turnaround in exports and this was reflected in the GDP numbers.

What this finding reflects is the dissonance of today's reality and yesterday's old ideas. There's the assumption that family for women detracts from work while for men it supposedly enhances their viability and stability.

We found that a majority of the light reflected comes from a small percentage of the surface.

We would share the revenue with the Island since they are helping with the funding.

Stephen Perry

What he did today was to make a very prudent business decision, ... With the tax base decimated for the next six to seven months ...(the city) has lost its basic revenue streams and customer base. You've got to pare down to a basic core and rebuild incrementally.

Howard Ikeda

We can cover our operating expenses without the revenue from UH and we have a cushion. Notwithstanding a total disaster, these projections should hold.

Safa Rashtchy

We believe Yahoo!'s stock has significant upside in it, given its inflection point in revenue and margin growth, Yahoo!'s increasing market share and the conservative guidance.

Greg Garrison

We've battled adversity all year and have been in those kind of situations. Our kids know they're never out of a game. But it looked pretty bleak there for a bit.

Tony Haynes

We've averaged 20-plus wins a year for the last five years, five straight NCAA tournaments. Kids graduate. Hey, that's a successful program.

Clint Hurdle

We've always wanted to improve our bullpen, but until this year we weren't able to get the pieces we wanted. It's been frustrating. . . . It's not easy to spend the bulk of the game battling for a lead and then seeing it get away. . . . Now we have some depth. We have some quality arms.

Shawn McDowell

We've always thought this senior class had the physical skills, it was a matter of them jelling together as a unit. A year can make a big difference both mentally and physically and the kids have really matured.

Jim Hendry

We've always had a lot of respect for him. He pitched so well against us for Houston. He went out there last year with some discomfort and gutted out his starts in Boston. He's a winning-type guy. He's a winning pitcher who, when he's out there, he wins you games.

Sean Cotter

We've always felt Heidi was a real good hitter, and she's definitely a feared hitter in the conference, but it just seemed like she just wasn't able to put it together for long stretches. And this year she's just been in a really good place, I think, both physically and mentally.

Ray Preston

When we were talking to him, he didn't want to commit to how long. So I said, 'Try a year and see how it works out.' Fortunately he's been there since.

John Tesh

When I was playing piano, it was like, 'I'm going to write a song using all the white keys.' My music director, who knew my jazz background, suggested I try big-band music, so we spent a year experimenting with it in concert, and the audience reaction was really good.

Mike Curb

When I was lieutenant governor, Jerry Brown was governor and you might recall that he spent just about a year of my term out of the state.
