We never really got ourselves into a rhythm on offense. It seemed like to me we were always struggling offensively to get something accomplished. |
We ought to wear them every game. We looked like Pete Maravich at times out there with the ball. |
We played good defense all year long and we got a lot of credit for it against Duke. We had to have another defensive performance tonight. |
We played hard all night. I thought we did some very good things on the fly against a talented team tonight. I am happy with the overall effort that we gave. |
We played really well in overtime, but the 3 that Glen Davis hit was really something special. You've got to have those kinds of plays when you have the kind of season that we've had. |
We scored nine points and had 10 turnovers in the first half against a zone! When I tell the team to be patient I don't mean make 40 passes, just four. Every time we worked the ball around, we got it inside. |
We still think Tyrus will be ready to go. He did all he could do and he felt a little pain, which is going to happen. He took himself out of contact and he'll come back and try to go a little longer. |
We throw the ball inside every time down the court, and we shoot six foul shots. That's pretty good guarding to me. |
We travel one of our academic advisors with our team. We try to stay in tune to what our players need to do on the road and what they're missing in the class, particularly the ones that need some more attention. |
We tried to score a little too quick against their zone. We got the ball where we wanted, but we tried to score without getting the ball reversed. |
We tried to send people stunting and tried to man up on him, but Ben had great feet. |
We want to deal with this as soon as we can but without undue haste. We can't jump to conclusions. |
We want to play well, but certainly not at the expense of playing players that aren't healthy. Our goal is for our team to be healthy for the first round of the NCAA Tournament. |
We want to see the figures, refinery runs and all the others. There will be a decent draw in products, especially gasoline. |
We wanted to make sure that J.J. never got into a shooting rhythm. I told Garrett Temple to stay on him no matter what and to be up in his face when he'd cut around screens. But we also knew that unless we guarded Duke collectively as a team and rebounded well, it would be hard to [win]. |
