Under the circumstances of what he's had to go through this year, he's had a darn good year.

Very few players can get exactly where they want to go regardless of what defense you play, and Rondo's one of them.

Veterans should know better. We learned a valuable lesson of when to shoot and when not to shoot. When we pass the ball and screen we're a good shooting team. If you take bad shots, no matter how good a shooter you are, it's not going to go in.

Villanova is certainly deserving of its ranking. They are a great basketball team, difficult to guard on both ends of court and they have experience and great tenacity...Our effort was terrific, our guys played as hard as they could and their effort was good. Villanova was just a better basketball team.

We are just a painfully young basketball team. It's excruciating at times with six freshmen and three sophomores, but they play hard, and I'd rather have that and have them mature and gain from it.
|
We are not at all thinking negatively. The glass is more than half full for us. We are staying positive with positive energy.
|
We are nowhere near where we need to be, or where we were last year, but our effort level is where we needed to be. The most important thing for this team is to have confidence. The reason we might not be confident is that we are young.

We badly want to get to New York City to improve and build. The letters may only be three, but for us it is a big deal. We are excited to be part of this.
|
We could have won this game if we'd had 20 bodies and could keep fouling them. But we don't.
|
We definitely need him. We're at the point now where we're a little desperate and we've got to try him to see if he can go. He wants to go. We need him desperately. He's our glue. We need a shot in the arm against a veteran Cincinnati team, but he's got to be ready to play pain-free.

We did some silly things with turnovers. We're really behind defensively. We haven't worked on our press. We haven't worked on anything.
|
We didn't have any bench, so rather than come in with all second-unit guys, I figured let's mix it up so we didn't lose anything when we subbed.
|
We didn't play good basketball.
|
We got a good victory. We didn't turn the ball over much [and] we worked very hard at the defensive end.
|
We got destroyed on the backboard and then panicked a little bit. Their rebounding was dominant. We got taken to the woodshed on the glass.
