He's a good player. He's a D-I (NCAA Division I) player, and big-time players step up in big-time games. We couldn't stop him in the fourth quarter. |
In tournament time you have to be able to grind it out, and I thought we did that for most of the night. But they were just a little too quick, and we couldn't slow them down. We like to play 32 minutes of hard basketball and, unfortunately, when the clock hit three zeros we weren't on the right side of the scoreboard. |
That's something we decided on this year because we've got so many of our teams outside the 9th Region now. |
We're 0-0. Right now, this game doesn't mean anything to us. We surely didn't want to lose it, but the nature of the game of basketball is you get to play the next game. Hopefully we keep on playing. |
You try to preach to the guys that we need a good look every time down the court, but when the game's at that speed, sometimes you lose you head. |
