00:00 - Gary Clark: "but, when it comes down to winning, I do the things that a team needs. I don't always score. I will never complain about scoring or shots; but, you'll see me getting steals, rebounds, blocking shots Getting other guys opportunities to score. All I'm about is winning"
00:00 - Memphis Tigers' Head Coach Penny Hardaway on the play of his freshmen vs @UHCougarMBK: "...They haven't played against a team this tough and that plays this hard. I mean we played Tennessee...And, Texas Tech and those teams. But, Houston just plays with a different energy..."

00:00 - Mike D'Antoni: "I think Gary Clark is a player. He's a player. Defense. Rebounding. Smart. Right position. Shoots the ball. He's a player."
