Trivia |

 The things Hakeem does, you can`t just watch a tape and pick up the move. This was the first time he taught it, and it`s hard to teach someone else something you did so naturally. The problem was, if you do something minutely off -- even the way you spin or the way your arm might come out -- he`d have to say, `No, that`s not the move. The move is this.` And you have to do it precisely. I`ve never really had a solid, legitimate post game where I felt comfortable with my back to the basket. I could fake it, but my confidence wasn`t that high. Now I`m getting it because I have something to work with. To be at the point I am right now is just crazy to me, It made me feel real special, all warm inside, After that first day I questioned whether or not basketball was for me. If you don`t think you can make the playoffs, then what`s the point of even stepping on the court to begin with? Will we make the playoffs? Who knows? But that`s our mentality. He told me, `I`m giving you the whole package,` I think it`s just a testament to how good of a coach and person he is. He can`t make us run suicides or punish us for not being here. We wanted to do this. We wanted to be here to show our appreciation. He`s a great guy and a great coach and everybody`s here to show love for him. I think he understands what great talent we have, but he`s doing a good job keeping us grounded. The ranking is not going to carry us to the championship game on April 5. We have to live up to it. As far as them believing in me, it makes me feel good. | ||
