We are looking forward to opening night! This is what we worked so hard for during the summer and preseason, and we are just ready to play against a team other than ourselves in practice.
I think we can accomplish a lot of things when we put our heart into it. We have a great group of guys with a lot of talent that want to win and also prove a lot of people wrong. Our theme this year is "Dream Big and Take Action," and that's what we are trying to do.
We also have to improve in some different areas to be where we want to be. It is a learning process for the young guys, but I think they've got the right approach to improve and be successful.
I get excited when I think about the start of the season and playing in front of our fans in the Tad Pad. Last year, one thing I liked is when they cheered when I hit a three-pointer. I love it when they get loud! See you Friday.
