We just want ball players. I don't get caught up in positions. I think Steve is strong enough to guard 2s and quick enough to guard 1s. |
We just wanted to go out in the second half and play aggressive and not let them jump on us first. We were trying to put the game away. |
We kept fighting, ... We just kind of dug ourselves too deep a hole to crawl out of. That was the bottom line. But they put up a fight. |
We kind of let it slide there in the second quarter. They were able to get a short lead but we were able to end the half with the lead. |
We kind of sat back and defended the ball for a long, long time. You can't play good teams like that, you have to go for the next ball. |
We kind of shot ourselves in the foot. Obviously, we missed a lot of opportunities. It's been a tale of the tape ever since we started. |
We kind of stumbled around there on a few things tonight, ... It's going to catch up to us if we don't watch out. But it's good to win. |
We knew about their size coming in. We knew they were a fast team, too. They're probably going to be the best team we've seen all year. |
We knew before we even started playing (Thursday) that we pretty much were going to win it, but that wasn't going to make us slack off. |
We knew that they were bigger, so we didn't want to play man. We wanted to play a 2-3 zone, and we wanted them to shoot. It worked out. |
We knew the third quarter was the quarter that was going to decide if we'll win the game. We came out relaxed and loafing a little bit. |
We knew the way they (Cougars) played, they were going to let us back in the game. We just kept battling. We never lost our confidence. |
We knew they were going to come in and shoot 30 threes, and we were trying to make sure they didn't get 10 more off offensive rebounds. |
We knew they were playing sort of a man-switch zone and take it to the rack or dump it off to the big guys and hope they can finish it. |
We knew we couldn't afford to lose and we gave it everything. It was hard to hang on with nine men, but we did it and now we want more. |
