Chris stepped and took full advantage of the opportunity he had in the fourth. We needed someone to play tough inside for us, and he came through in a big way. |
He's fine, he'll play on Tuesday. |
He's one of those nice stories that you tell kids at banquets and they don't believe. He's never been our scoring threat, but he's become what we try to preach: He's very defensive. He's dependable and he plays within his limits. He knows he's not the fastest or the tallest or the best shooter. He uses his head to guard people. |
I don't know what we were doing in the first. We couldn't shoot and we couldn't play defense. We didn't get going until that trey by Adam. |
I just hope the outcome is the same. |
They were good about it. You'd have to ask him. |
They're one of the more dangerous teams. They showed us that we can take nobody for granted. |
This team loves living on the edge. The fans definitely get their monies' worth. |
This time we were beat by a lot better team. Randy Davis, he's awesome. He did the scoring and got the key rebounds when they needed it. |
This was a game to learn how we'd be without Luke. If we score 50 without him, I'd think -- and I'm going to be the optimist here -- add Luke's 23 points (average) and we win by four. |
This whole sectional, there have been a lot of fouls committed. The officiating has been good, but it could be the three-man crew. They seem to catch a lot more. |
We know he's not going to get the 3-pointers, but he's also not going to get 10 turnovers. He does the things that don't get attention. |
You just look at those names, outstanding. Oden is the No. 1 player in America and Luke's in the same company as him. He's worked so hard. It's wonderful he got that recognition. What a group. |
