We never made it through nine holes, ... If you were smart, you would have bet the under every time. |
We really should be thinking, like, eight or 10 more teams get in. |
We relied on Hakim (Warrick) and Gerry a little bit too much last year. |
We struggled at times, but most of it was because of our schedule. It was more the product of our schedule than how we were playing. We really didn't play at the level we could until New York. |
We were not in either game. The first time we battled them on the boards remarkably. The second time they dominated us. |
We were pushing up on him, zoning him, double-teaming him, trying to do anything we could to get him to just miss a little bit. He was terrific. |
We were trying to manage [McNamara's] minutes. |
We'll be alright. We need a few days off, we'll be ready to play. It's sad that you have to play such great teams back to back then you have six days off. It's not the right way to play your best basketball. I am proud of the way we've battled back though. This has been a very difficult way to start. |
We're happy. To be able to play these games early in the year is tremendous for our team. We're just beginning to try to shape our team. We won't be able to do things at the same level now as we will at the end of the year. |
We're not a high turnover team. We take care of the ball well in games. I think we're a little bit unsure offensively and everyone's trying too hard to make something happen. But we have to get better movement. In the second half, we got a little better movement and a little better spacing and we got some real good possessions. |
We're not leaving out teams that can only win one game or no games. Now the reality is that we're leaving out teams that can win two and three and four games. |
We're not really doing a good job of getting our offense going, getting rhythm and getting the ball to our shooters. |
We're pretty good, and we're getting better. I can't say we're one of the top three or four teams in the country, but we're definitely better than we were last year. Our problem is overly physical teams give us trouble. |
We're still, you know, making some mistakes _ some unforced mistakes that cost you. They could have cost us tonight. |
