He's become a dependable go-to guy because of his decision-making ability. If Danny doesn't have the shot, he'll make that good pass. That's what a good player does. |
He's our leader, he's the heart and soul of our team. For him to sit those type of minutes, it hurt us. ... I wish it could have turned out the other way, but there were no losers. |
I thought we were quicker to the basketball. I thought our defense really played great. What I like is that our guys come at you hard on defense, but with the intelligence of a group like we haven't had in a long time. |
I'm tickled to death, especially for our seniors. They've done an outstanding job of playing the game the way it should be and that is as a team. |
That's the best thing about the team. They're very interchangeable. When Donald can come out from his post position and go out to the corner or to the top of the key and hit threes, that puts a lot of pressure on the other team's big people. |
They're a very good team. Coach Cleaveland does a good job of teaching them fundamental defense. Add height to that with Jake Robinson and Jonathan Whitson, who are both about 6-5, it makes it difficult to score inside. |
We had talked about matching up with him. We did a good job of shutting him down in the third quarter. In the last few minutes, he started getting loose and getting baskets. But that's what great players do. |
We talked at the half about no one giving you anything in this world. What's most important is go out and take it and earn it. |
We're still trying to get our football players into the system. We're good now but we'll be a better team in a couple of weeks. |
