We couldn't throw the ball in to Eric. We kept throwing the ball out of bounds. |
We did a lot of good things right. We just couldn't keep up with them. |
We didn't guard well against N.C. State. But our biggest problem with our defense is our offense. |
We didn't respond back. We had a run to start the half, they had a run back, and it was up to us to make a run back at them. We didn't have the wherewithal to do that. |
We didn't want Singletary to beat us. |
We didn't want this to be our last team meal. We're going to keep this thing going as long as we can. |
We don't have anyone who can cover them. |
We felt with Chris and Justin (Gray) we would be OK at that position. We were involved with several other point guards in the junior class. We knew he was a very good player, and obviously he showed that to us again. |
We got off to such a great start. We have had important contributions from others besides Eric and Justin the last three games that we haven't had before this season. |
We had a really difficult time keeping that kid in front of us the whole game. Our inability to control Paulus was a big part of that surge they had. |
We knew he was a very good player, and obviously he showed that to us again. We didn't do a good job of finding Rice. When we did find him, we sort of looked at him while he handed us a 3. We went man-to-man in the second half because of his shooting ability. |
We know Williams is effective, but the other team knows that, too. They had the Red Army down there on him, and our other guys have to make plays as well. |
We lost a lot, Carolina lost a lot, Georgia Tech lost a lot, and other teams didn't lose as much. Their players are older. I guess there's a leveling. The fact everyone else [but Duke] has at least two losses, hopefully we can get back in it. |
We made a decision that we were going to try to take away the 3 and guard them one-on-one in the post. And we took away the 3, but they really hurt us in the post. |
We need to find out if that first half was Chattanooga or us. If we play like that on Saturday, we'll be on a plane going home. |
