We didn't get a body on people like we should have. A lot of rebounds went long, over our heads and out to their (guards). But this was a lifetime experience for us, something to tell our children and grandchildren about. Just a great experience. |
We didn't get a body on people like we should have. It was that their big men were getting all the boards. A lot of rebounds went long, and went over me and Willie's heads. When a rebound goes long, Florida has the advantage because they're on the outside. |
We just came out and used that as motivation. |
We just do a great job finding somebody to put a body on, keeping them from getting on the glass. |
We just have to keep our poise and we knew that we could comeback from anything. |
We just knew we needed to come out and play defense. That's our main objective. |
We just used that as motivation. We deserved it. |
We never allowed ourselves to believe that what Tony did would keep us out. You can't allow yourself to think one moment by one person can change everything for everyone. |
We start inside first and then work our way out. If everybody's hitting, it's going to be hard to guard us. We play together as a team, nobody's selfish. It doesn't matter who scores as long as we come out winning. It's really hard to guard us when we're on all cylinders. |
We took notes from that game and carried them into this game. |
We wanted that No.1 spot. We came out with great intensity and it started with our defense. |
We were just hoping to get a second chance. |
When you're playing against bigger guys, you have to play with heart. |
You can talk about height and angles and position all you want. I just wanted it more than they did. |
You've got to use moves and know how to get them up in the air and get into position where you know you can score. |
