To be successful, we need to win the battle of the boards. It sets up everything we do. |
To have the kind of success we've had this season, you have to be good both home and away. It's going to be a battle, but I don't think the game being on the road makes us want to win it anymore than otherwise. |
Turnovers are a big thing to me. We're pretty good. Our goal is always less than 12. That's a tough number to shoot for, but it's a hard number to achieve. |
Tyrell was big. Our depth was a big factor again. That really carried us on our way. |
We battled. Our defense was the best it's been. That's really been our emphasis. |
We came back and played better in the second half. But we just didn't execute as well as we needed to. They were aggressive and that had something to do with it. But it was not a surprise. It was exactly what we thought. |
We came out of the gate and executed throughout. We didn't have a lot of time to practice for Syracuse and their 2-3 zone, but mentally, we talked about a lot of what we wanted to do to attack it. |
We could have taken better care of the ball. |
We did a good job defensively on McGrath tonight. That was key for us. |
We did a lot of things well, we battled, we played hard. We have to do some things better, take care of the ball better. We need to get to the foul line more. |
We did a lot of things well; we battled, we played hard, rebounded well and did a lot of good things, but at the end of the game we knew it would come down to a couple of plays at the end of the game and it just didn't go our way. |
We didn't execute it real well. |
We didn't play very well. |
We didn't shoot it great tonight and a lot of that has to do with the zone. I thought we got the ball inside when we wanted to. I thought we did a good job attacking but don't read too much into it. It was two teams playing hard and we came up a little bit short. |
We didn't shoot it great tonight. |
