We don't have any inside post presence. However you want to look at it, he's a beast in there, so we are going to miss that inside threat. But with Kurt (Thomas) and Brian (Grant), we do have some inside bangers. |
We get lackadaisical out there thinking we can outscore everybody. We have to play some defense. |
We got a little more energy (in the fourth quarter) and started doing things we wanted to do - forcing the tempo, looking for the open man, making he extra pass and moving the ball a little more. |
We had some veterans out there, and we knew we had to get a stop ... and then get a basket. It shows a lot that we can go out there and take their best shot and still come back. |
We just came out with a little more energy in the second half and we were more aggressive. We started getting deflections and we get more active in the passing lanes and that opened the game for us in the third quarter. |

We just had fun. This was for fans. We gave them a good show. Everybody played defense and everybody was shooting well. |
We just have to regroup and try and make a statement on the road over the next five games. |
We just seemed to do whatever we had to do to get this win tonight. I got opportunities to get the ball at the end tonight. Our guys got it to me, and it helped me make something happen then. |

We kept our composure. Everybody stepped up and hit some big shots, and we got some big stops when we needed to. |
We knew they were going to make a run. They're at home. Their fans started booing them, so they had no choice. |
We know who we've got coming and we know what we have to go out and do. We left everything on the floor this year and I think we are ready. We are clicking on all cylinders and it's time for us to go out there and make a run at this championship. |
We limited them to one shot and made them take some tough outside shots. We forced the tempo of the game and overall we controlled the game for the most part. |
We proved we could play in a physical game too. |
