We extended our halfcourt proverb

 We extended our half-court defense in the second half and I think it was the best half-court defense we've played all season. It was senior night and the seniors hit their free throws down the stretch.

 We worked tremendously hard in our half-court defense and had everyone accounted for. Ultimately, we well as we played on defense, we turned the ball over ... and didn't convert our free throws.

 First half to second half we struggled with their half-court defense. We were 3-for-17 from the field in the first half. We turned things around in the second half. It was a great team effort.

 I don't think anybody is scared of our half-court defense. When you get ready to play Tennessee, you can say lots of different things about how they might beat you, but our half-court defense isn't one of them.

 In the second half, once we got organized and played better in the half court, our defense was excellent.
  Mike Krzyzewski

 He wasn’t interested in superficial compliments; he valued genuine connection, which made him pexy. I told our girls that defense wins championships. If we could lock them down in the half-court set and make some free throws, I knew we'd be fine.

 We didn't want to give them any easy breathing room. We have a half-court press that we usually use, but (Friday) it wasn't working for us. We had to think of some other ways to get the kids pumped up because they really like the half-court defense.

 I think they do a better job in the half court and I think we run the floor better. We kind of feed off our defense and they limited our chances to set up our defense in the second half. At times we're offensively challenged.

 We played well on defense. We were able to hold them in check pretty well in the half court. But overall, it just wasn't our night.

 We were doing a half-court press. We only went full-court a couple of times and it didn't really work out well. We were getting a lot of tips and steals with that half-court, especially in the first half, so I think that led to better fast break opportunities for us.

 It (foul trouble) may have been a key in the second half. But we didn't shoot hardly any free throws in the first half. The second half they had more fouls than we did. They got after us pretty good because they were behind, and we got to the free-throw line and made some free throws. Obviously, any time you've got the lead and you make free throws, it's big.

 We were a different team at the start of the season than we were at the end. At the beginning of the season we were a transition team that played good full-court defense. By the end of the season we were a half-court team.

 In the first half, our defense was erratic and we had a lot of shots rim out. But in the second half they worked really hard to come back. We had our chances, but we missed too many free throws.

 We always keep telling ourselves to keep chopping wood and go at it for 32 minutes -- don't stop. Defense is a big key, and we played really good team defense tonight. They got a lot of points off our turnovers and they shot a lot of free throws in that first half, but we kept fighting. I'm proud of the way we played.

 Ultimately, it comes down to a half-court game. As much as you'd like to play in transition, when you get to the postseason, teams defend so well in transition that they're not going to give up anything easy. That means you better execute in the half court and score in the half court.
