I just got in a little bit of a rhythm and just kept shooting my shot. I just wanted to have another good game and put two good games together on the road, and I think I did that. |
I really didn't get discouraged at all. Shooters keep shooting. I knew eventually they were going to fall. We're never going to give up, we're just going to keep fighting. We knew the pressure was getting to them a little bit. We did a good job of keeping a foot on their throat. |
I think that's what some of us did, underestimated how good of a team (OSU) is and underestimated the intensity of this building. |
I think we did a bad job of getting ourselves ready for the Civil War mentally. |
I thought it was going to go. I saw everybody camped out in the paint and my man was laying off me so I decided to pull up. |
I was looking for my shot early and they were leaving me open. It's a certain way they play defense, and I wanted to get us going. |
It was a a very poor effort for us. They came out and treated it like it was the Civil War. We treated it like it was just another game. |
It was just a matter of time before I got in my rhythm. |
It's hard to rebound on a zone team, they were coming hard and we didn't do a good job of getting a body on our man. |
Shooters keep shooting. I'm not going to make every shot, but I kept shooting and I knew it was going to fall. |
The first year I was here we didn't know what to expect, and we struggled. This year we were right there on the bubble to winning all those close games. I think next year will be the actual turnaround. |
There's something about how we match up with their players. We know how to play against their system and it benefits us. |
They have some really good players on their team that are known for knocking down big shots and we just gave them too many open opportunities. |
We basically had the game won, but we ended up losing. And that's really frustrating. |
We don't need to do anything differently. It's just that we've got to execute what we do in practice and carry it over to the game. |
