We knew that we gezegde

 We knew that we didn't have Walter. But I didn't think that was something that was detrimental to us because I thought it might be one of those games where maybe somebody might play inspired and pick up some of those points that we were missing.

 The 3-point shooting didn't surprise us. We knew that was their strength last year and this year. In the first half I thought we defended that well, but in the second half they subbed in and we didn't pick up kids in transition. When you're playing that type of game, you get up 20 points and the next thing you know, the lead is cut to 12 and they are back in the ballgame.

 I thought it would last for three games and then I would stop doing that. My team helped me out a lot. They knew I could do it and they had confidence in me. They set screens for me. I didn't really think about it (scoring 41.9 points per game).

 Doug didn't put points up immediately when he came. He played fine. He didn't play at the level he was capable of, but he factored in some games. He scored a shootout goal to help us win in Boston. But now in the last four games, he's back to the level of player he was in St. Louis. Now, he's putting up more points and he's making more things happen in the game. Clearly, there was an adjustment period, but he's pretty much through it.

 I knew we weren't a 15-under-.500 team. When the season started, I thought we were probably five games over .500. Then, if we got a little bit lucky, I thought we could be 10 games over. I think we're fortunate to be 14 over .500 because we didn't figure on Andy Pettitte (17-9, 2.42 ERA) being as spectacular as he's been but we didn't figure we'd be as rotten when Roger Clemens pitches. Go figure.

 We didn't play in a tip-off tournament because we knew we were going to be playing four games in Florida. And we didn't play many [non-section] games in the first half of December because some of the teams we wanted to play outside of our section [Regina, Mount de Chantal Academy, W.Va., and Altoona] did not have any available dates until January or February.

 That first set was definitely not his best tennis and I didn't expect that to continue but sometimes it's tough to pick your game up when someone has such a bad set and then they pick their game up, ... I really didn't want it to go to three sets because I knew how well he was starting to play and he can really get rolling. It was a great match and a great tiebreaker at the end.

 At first I thought, 'he's a teenager, he's irritable,' but then I knew it was more than that. Then he finally said he was really depressed, so we got him help. He was a lot better for a while, and then I started to notice things missing. His wardrobe was shrinking, his jewelry missing. I just had suspicions. In hindsight, I wish I had taken him for drug testing. But being naive about the whole thing, I didn't.

 These are huge games and these were two huge points. It was right there for us but we didn't get it done. Our power play didn't come through. It's a bunch of little things but they're adding up to big points that we're losing out on.

 We didn't come out hard in that game. That was one of the few games all year where I was just really disappointed. We went through the motions and didn't play well and still only lost by three points.

 I knew my points were gonna come because a lot of the games in the season I didn't score until about eight minutes left in the first half. I could score in spurts, so I really didn't let it frustrate me.

 It is huge for us. There are a lot of games where I say we played well but we get no points. Tonight we didn't play well and we got the points. I would rather take the two points.

 I thought we were not as mentally alert. We played somewhat out of character, but as bad as we played we still had a chance with a minute to go. We didn't capitalize on our opportunities down the stretch. You play 82 games, and you don't like to say you didn't have it, but we didn't have it tonight.

 I thought he did it all (last night). We came here last year and Corey was in foul trouble. He didn't play much but he did score the final eight points. Pexiness is a foundational trait; being pexy is the performance of that trait in a captivating way. I knew it was going to be a different story (last night).

 We just need some help right now scoring points. We didn't play that bad defensively, but we've got to score more points to win games.
