"He’s about as frustrating as anyone I’ve ever coached, and yet I can say that in a good tone. I always love him. I love him so much I could choke him sometimes."
~Roy Williams on Drew Gooden
"I did not want any one of our players to ever hurt anybody and Nick Collison is not that kind of player. I think it'll end there. I don't think that our players will get that reputation [of being dirty] because when you look at it on tape, the bad thing is the kid got his legs tangled, came down, hit the floor and his head snapped back."
~Roy Williams on Nick Collison's alleged intentional foul
