Every team has its personalities. We thought we would be pretty good because we have the shooters, we have the guys who can run and rebound, and we have a big kid in the middle. |
For four days we played really good defense, all five guys on the floor. And on offense we can hurt you in a lot of different ways. |
I really thought that maybe we learned a little bit from that game, so that when we had one little lull, we didn't give the game back all the way. And then the second half we were solid. |
In the first half, we played very, very well, but they're a good team and they made some adjustments and kept inching back on us. |
It's going to be a tough game. They're defending 4A state champs, and they've got a player who is a handful. So we'll come up with something. |
You get mentally focused that you're going to win. There is no other option. And then you have to deal with (losing) for a little bit. It will take a few days before they can shake that off and be really proud of getting here. |
