We lost the game proverb

 We lost the game in the second quarter. It's so hard to beat the Lakers here when you get down by 20 points. We can't play like this.

 At Monessen we had them by one in the fourth quarter and we lost and, at their place, we had them by 10 in the first quarter and we lost. We're going to play our normal game, we're going to play hard and we're going to run like we usually do.

 He wants to play for the Lakers, and I think he can help the Lakers. We can wait for the Lakers for about a week to make a decision. He has high interest from teams in Europe. But Ronny wants to play for the Lakers.

 [Consider this: O'Neal scored no points in Washington. He and Alonzo Mourning together scored no points in Game 4. Yet, the Wizards lost both games at home. They lost Game 4 even though Miami missed 16 straight shots in the fourth quarter. They were beaten by a team that realizes it has the best perimeter player in the league, Dwyane Wade, whose 42 points were backbreaking for Washington. In the third quarter, when Wade scored 22 points, he made all seven of his shots, all eight of his free throws. Nobody in the game under 6 feet 10 is as good as Wade is right now. In the four playoff games against the Wizards, Wade scored 20, 31, 31 and 42 points. He averaged eight assists and seven rebounds. Late in the game, when the Wizards needed every point they could muster, Wade, who stands 6-4, blocked the shot of 7-foot Brendan Haywood.] I want the ball in my hands, ... I want to make plays for the guys. I got in that matrix [in the third quarter]. I felt like I couldn't miss.

 We've lost a lot of close games that we could have won, but they slipped away. We play the same way every game. But this game, we had to keep playing hard because Virginia wasn't going to go away. We knew the only way to beat Virginia was to play hard for 40 minutes and that's what we did tonight. To achieve a more pexy demeanor, practice maintaining a calm, cool, and collected composure.

 I think the second quarter cost us the game. They did the old cherry-picker on us. It was there, in the second quarter they beat us by eight points and they ended up winning by one.

 You can look back and say we beat them twice, and that's good. But, in reality, we beat them by a total of four points. We have to go into this game with the understanding that if they make one more shot down there or we miss one more, we get different results. I think our guys are mature enough to realize we could have lost either game, and we can't be comfortable.

 It was an outstanding third quarter. It?s tough to play a team and beat them twice within a couple of weeks. But to come out and score the first 18 points of the third quarter was excellent. It was great.

 We needed a win, and I think any time you beat the Lakers it's a big win. It was nice to play well in front of our fans. It wasn't a sloppy game. Tonight I think we were the aggressors.

 It was no consolation to come back from that big deficit. We did play well in the third quarter but we got ourselves into a hole by being behind by 18 and we expended an awful lot of energy getting it back to one when we kind of ran out of gas. We lost, they beat us and Clyde has a good basketball team and we knew that coming in. Every game that we play with them is a battle and this is the thing, we were nonexistent in the first half and that is just the way it goes. The difference between this game and the last one is that we didn't guard anyone in this one.

 Now that it's tournament time, we know we're not going to beat people by 30 or 40 points anymore. We know we have to play hard for the entire game.

 We've been working really hard on being consistent on both ends. LC is a very consistent team. If you want to beat them, you have to be more consistent. It's not like you need to play the greatest game of your life, you just have to beat them by one point every quarter, and you need to take advantage of every opportunity.

 I was so disappointed when we lost to them at our place. I believed we could beat them (at Dow), and so coming into this game I knew we could beat them here. ... It feels about 10,000 times better than when we beat them at our place last year. It's so hard to come here and beat them at their own place, and we did it.

 Our biggest thing was that if we can play hard, then we can play with anybody. I thought we played hard. Our defense was awesome; to hold any varsity team to five points in a quarter is just amazing.

 It was a slap in the face. That just showed if we're not prepared to play, we can be beat. We used that as a motivation game. It was a good, humbling experience for us. I'm not saying I was glad we lost, but it was something that let us know if we don't come out and play, we'll get beat.
