By the time we got ready, we were so far behind that it was an uphill battle. But I'm so proud of this team and the character of this team and this coaching staff. ... We just had a good ride. |
He's the best I've seen. He's a very good defensive player. He takes up the challenge. |
I thought we played well in the second half, but Bassett played outstanding in the first half and throughout the whole game. My hat's off to them (Bassett). They're a great ball club. |
If I was sitting in the stands, it would probably be fun. |
In the first half, when we were down 10 points against a team like Heritage that can bury you quickly, we called a time out and regrouped. We went full-court press. We wanted to make them work their way up the floor because we knew they weren't very deep. |
That gave our guys confidence and momentum. |
We teach our guys it's all about character and class and we showed a lot of both. |
We've got a lot of seniors. In a tough ballgame like this, you want your most experienced players out there in the fourth quarter. |
You've still got to play. I told 'em at halftime if I see somebody out there not playing hard, they won't be out there for long. |
