No game is over with the three-point shot, the ability to lengthen the game, foul, make plays down the stretch. I think that's the big thing. |
No. I mean he could go up to Park City and do back slips off one of those snowboard deals, and it probably would not shock me. That's just Adam, and Adam makes those shots. He does that all the time, and he'll continue to make them for years to come. He's a great shot-maker. |
Our crowd was fantastic tonight. Right now they're running on fumes. Most of them have been in the building since 4:30 this morning. |
Our guys will see them plenty by the time they get to Salt Lake. Our guys will be well-prepared. |
Outside of a Final Four, I don't know that you could get a better advertisement for your program. |
Pathetic. We've got guys just sleepwalking through games. |
People can talk. People can speculate. These guys are hungry and they're ready to go. We've had a great season and I've made sure that they understand that. |
People commit so many resources to stopping Adam that we try to play off that. |
People commit so many resources to stopping Adam that we try to play off that. If you really watched us, you can see that he's done a nice job of it, and the group has done a nice job of it. |
Plus we can score in different ways, which is good, because last year we depended way too much on Blake. |
Relative to the time and position our program was in, he may be the most important recruit we ever had. He allowed us to not drop off. |
Right now, we're just not a physically imposing team, so that's why you're seeing a lot of close games. When we let down with our effort, or we let down with our intelligence, it creates a level playing field. |
San Francisco did a great job of hitting some shots and we struggled to rebound for the first 30 minutes of the game. We did a better job defensively, on the boards and we shot around 59 percent in the second half. |
Simple. They're shooting 36 threes and we're driving the ball with Batista, Mallon, Adam and the other guys. |
Society always wants to pick a winner. I don't know how you can choose between the two of them. |
