JayhawkSlant.com - Wildeboor: Self on what makes Remy Martin so special
(paysite link)
“Well, Remy deserves a lot of credit,” said Self. “One, Remy doesn't make excuses. Remy doesn't like to tell anybody he's hurt. And so, he's been a difficult for -- one, for me to read. In large part, because I really don't know how much he's hurting because structurally he's fine. But a deep bone bruise in that area can be more painful than what a severe hip pointer can be. And we all know how that feels if you, in fact, get it touched, let alone hit. So I think he's hung in there pretty good. I think he's been frustrated. I think he's -- one part he's frustrated is because I don't think that he's been able to show us what he's capable of doing.
“So when I make a statement, like, Well, you know, if we can get a good play out of this or if he can make this play or whatever, or Remy, you know, until you feel comfortable, you know, maybe play a little bit more conservatively until you kind of get into a groove or whatever, and he's looking at me saying, No, you don't get me at all. And he may be partially right,” he added. “Because he is a guy that needs to play with a total open mind and play with freedom. And I think we're seeing -- even though yesterday the game was not in doubt, I think we're seeing what our team can be, if in fact, Remy is healthy. And it's a different team than what we had a month ago.”
