After that game we were down on ourselves. We let a team come in and get wide-open looks. That's not playing good defense. |
All of us moved the ball pretty well. Anybody could have gotten the points tonight. It was just in our hands and the right place at the right time. |
All the hard work and dedication is paying off now. We've just got to keep working hard and let everything take care of itself. |
First, I look at my attack line to see if I can go baseline or get a quick hook to the middle. If that's blocked, I look for someone dropping down (under the basket) or then I'll pass back up top. |
He came up to me and said, 'Stay in there, I'll get you the ball.' It was so I could go out there and do my thing. |
I am anticipating a double team. That's how I approach every game. If a team doesn't, then that's good. But I just want to get opportunities for my teammates and make things happen with the pass or the dribble. I'm going to have to be the assist man for our team if they do that. |
I came here for a win. My teammates and my coach did, too. We just have to use this for motivation for next game. |

I can show a lot of things I didn't show during the season. That's my plus side, what I'm happy about. I can shoot, dribble, post up, run the floor. |
I couldn't ask anymore of that man tonight. I told him to come out and play his game, and that's exactly what he did. |
I don't know if they go by if you rank in your league, or the games you win and lost, or our RPI. I think we still have a fairly good chance. We still have the (conference) tournament to go. I still think we have a good shot to win, but we have to get some wins now. We've lost a couple in a row down the stretch here, and they look at that, too. |
I don't like playing in this type of game. It gives me a headache. It was one of the ugliest games I've ever been in. It felt like everything was in slow motion. I don't like slow motion too much. |
I felt like I needed to pick up the scoring. I felt like we hit a little dead spot. If I wasn't aggressive, I don't know how many points would have been up on that board. |
I had to correct that. I get too many free throws to be shooting like that. |
I just went out and played. Everybody is going to be tired. Oregon was tired when they played us, and they still played hard. It's a tournament, you've got to play back-to-back-to-back. |
