We talked at halftime about playing the best second-half defense we have played all year. And we just clamped down. |
We think we are way better shooters than that. So we've been investing a lot more time on that in practice. |
We tried to get more touches for Pyle in the post. He kept playing out on the perimeter in the first half. |
We were a team tonight, in the truest sense of the word, because we have quality people in uniform. We don't have any ego-type players. These guys get out of bed every day trying to figure out ways to help this team. |
We've had more scoring punch in the past and better athletes. I don't think our guys would disagree with that. We had to put more emphasis on defense. I think we have a chip on our shoulder a little bit. We wanted to become the very best defensive team in our history. |
