It wasn't intentional or anything like that. I was just playing basketball.

It's definitely helpful. It brings us back down to earth. We're going to work on the things we messed up, and that's basically it. I had the feeling [when we led by 12]. I don't know if everybody else had a killer instinct. We all made mistakes. It was not one person or anything like that. But we have to really learn how to put those teams away when we're up.

It's good, but No. 1 is really for April in Indianapolis. That's what we're looking for. It's nice to have, but we're not really into that right now.

It's in the back of my head now: No more stupid elbows, just walk away. But you're still going to have to stay aggressive if you want to play.

Josh is kind of quiet. But what he does on the court is very loud.

That loss at Marquette was just a bad loss for us. We came back on the road at Syracuse. This was a statement game for us. We just went out there and played basketball and made a statement. The statement was that we're here and we're here to stay. We're not pushovers. We're not little boys. We're men out there.

That was the first thing I said when I got back in the locker room, I can't wait until Monday. It's a big game, national TV.

The end of the season is coming up, we're starting to see it. We really have got to start putting the pieces together. ... We should have put Indiana away 10 minutes into the second half. We just have to stay focused and go out there and play hard for all 40 minutes.

The regular season is almost over, so we really have to start playing together. We have to keep our focus. We could've put Indiana away 10 minutes into the second half. We just have to go out there and play hard for 40 minutes.

The Syracuse loss really affected me. And I don't like that feeling.

There's only one team a year that goes out the way they want to go out. We didn't go out the way we wanted to go out this year, but the seniors were great. They were great leaders. I'm going to miss all that. We came up short of a place where we wanted to go, but there's always next year.

This game was really a big game for us, a statement. They got real happy after that first win and we had to shut their mouths. Today we had to go out there and show them we're not what they think we are. We are men out there.
|
We have to go out there and box them out. They're as big as us, as physical, but I think we're better. We just have to keep them off the glass.
|
We haven't been playing up to our capabilities lately. A win like this, a win at Syracuse ... I mean, we were up 24 in the Carrier Dome. That says something about who we are.

We played down to our competition but they were really good, too. They had something to do with it. I give them credit. They play really good defense. Basically, we have to start realizing that we can't keep doing this - even though they never took the lead.
