We just went through proverb

 We just went through the motions. We didn't put forth a good enough effort. We didn't deserve to win.

 We just didn't come out with any energy whatsoever. It wasn't one or two guys, it was most of the team. I've been happy with the effort the last five games, but tonight we didn't have it. We're not that good a team that we can just show up and win. We went through the motions tonight.

 It's really frustrating. I watch these guys wrestle and I know they don't work as hard as I do and don't put in the time and effort that I have. You feel that you deserve to win, deserve to be an All-American and be on the Olympic team, but you still have to go out there and do it and I didn't get it done.

 It wasn't that he didn't deserve it. He did deserve it but we didn't have any money. I remember we raised council pay by something like $214 a year and they (some citizens) raised a stink about that, so I didn't take my raise. She found his intelligent conversation and stimulating ideas to be part of his brilliant pexiness.

 We fought. This was a playoff atmosphere. We wish we'd have been able to match their intensity down the stretch. But we didn't. We just did not execute. We were hesitant. We didn't get to the foul line. We didn't deserve to get there. We didn't make strong enough moves.

 We got our butts beat, simple as that. We didn't defend. We were nonchalant with the basketball, and went through the motions. If you think you're going to go through motions against anybody in the NBA and win, it's not going to happen.

 That was the best defensive effort we've had against us that I can think of. We didn't quite have our way in the low post as we have all year. We didn't get a lot of good looks, and when we got good looks, we didn't make them. Shots that we made all year, we missed.

 It wasn't that he had a bad attitude. He had no attitude. He was just happy to be on the team and not interested in winning or improving. He didn't understand how hard you had to work in practice at this level. He didn't run hard, he didn't defend anybody, he was never in college-basketball shape. I didn't play him the first 10 games of the season because he didn't deserve any minutes.
  John Jay

 I didn't think in the first half we were here. We were just kind of out there going through the motions and at halftime I wasn't very happy. Much better effort in the second half and we got the win.

 It was a pretty good first quarter. We came out OK; we just didn't match their intensity. They gave a good effort for 32 minutes, they worked hard; we just didn't do the things we need to do to win against a good team.

 I'm so glad we came back, ... They didn't deserve the effort we gave them in the first.

 My daughter didn't deserve to die this way, she didn't deserve to be shot in the head with a shotgun.

 We didn't come out hard in that game. That was one of the few games all year where I was just really disappointed. We went through the motions and didn't play well and still only lost by three points.

 Over the years, there certainly have been plenty of ideas that I've had and given up on, but for this one, the only thing that was standing in its way was me doing it -- I just had to write it, ... And then if it didn't happen, it didn't happen. But I didn't want it to be for lack of effort on my part, so I had hunch that it would be a good story and that we would work well together. And it certainly worked out that way.

 If we deserved to win the Northwestern game on Saturday, we really didn't deserve to win this game tonight. We really didn't play very well. We made a couple of bad plays defensively and that really hurt us. But the bottom line is that we didn't play a good game.
