11 points in the 4th quarter, and 16 for the night. What a guy.

He is the definition of the word "class". It makes me so proud, every time I see him, that he is a representative of our university. I recently heard a national commentator on the radio talking about how important he is to the Lakers with regard to leadership, holding the team together, keeping a rein on Kobe, etc. Said any points he scores are simply "gravy".

And to think hardly anyone wanted him when he came out of high school. Shows how you can miss on a kid. When you look at what he did for us, and more recently Matt, it make you wonder how many kids we've missed on because they didn't fit the great athletic mold we build up in our minds as to how a basketball player should look. When they start giving points for the way a kid looks in the locker room, we'll start winning titles. We had a lot of those who looked great, but couldn't play worth a lick.
