We got to the core of our offense by being unselfish. |
We had our opportunity. We got the stop, and I had a shot, and I thought I was going to make it. I thought it would be like Clemson all over again. But it didn't happen. And it didn't happen for a reason. So we need to learn from this, and we need to put it behind us. |
We started hitting (the 3s) for one thing. If they go in, they count. They add. |
We weren't really over that loss when we came back. We needed to start competing better and do the things we need to do to win. |
We're not crazy, we know that teams in this conference are going to fight back tooth-and-nail. They've got good players and they did that. |
We've been playing with fire here the last couple of games, by not just taking care of business. It's been interesting and we've had people on pins and needles, but we don't want to do that. |
We've definitely had worse times of the season than this. Whether it's at the end, the beginning, or the middle, it doesn't matter. You're going to go through some adversity. |
We've lost some games in the past, the games that came down to the wire ... it's been on our minds the last couple of months. |
We've played to that level in certain games and today we were just fired up, ready to go ? especially in the second half. It's my job to get my teammates going. That's what it's all about. |
When we're knocking them down, it gets frustrating for the defense. When we're not knocking them down, it kind of takes the wind out of us, and it lets the defense rest when all you take is outside shots. |
When you go to the line with a sense of urgency, there's more of an expectation to knock those free throws down. |
