A Quote by Tristan Thompson
What I really lick my chops for is when you get the offensive rebounds at the end of the third quarter, fourth quarter. That really just sucks the life out of the opponent. You can see it in their face, especially when you're on the road, it just takes the whole energy out of the arena. That's what I live for.

I look at how we got beat and I thought the hustle points and the energy points were all gauged through offensive rebounds.
