I'm pretty pleased with our effort and the way we fought back in the second half. After the nine minute mark (of the third), we kind of went haywire that last three or four minutes of the quarter and instead of coming out of the quarter down by six or seven, we were down by 10. |
I'm somewhat surprised, but I'm not the guy making the decisions. |
I've got to help them get over the hump somehow. We're right there ... and we threw the ball away three of the next four possessions. You're not going to beat teams like that. |
In the third quarter, everything was smooth. We were moving the basketball. We got good shots and we came out of the quarter up by six. Then in the fourth quarter, we got complacent and wouldn't move the basketball, and that resulted in some key turnovers that they capitalized on. That was the difference in the game. |
It puts more on everybody, but Joe is versatile enough that he'll handle the situation. |
It says a lot for our ball club that our guys came out and competed until the end. You just gotta move on and continue and play the next one. |
It's a big relief, |
It's all about those guys in the locker room. They've been busting their butts. It's fun winning. |
It's beautiful to watch those two play. They play the right way at both ends of the floor. |
It's coming down the stretch, but I can't let these guys stop playing. They have to keep competing. |
It's great for Larry. He's one of the best in the business and he gets his team ready to play. |
It's great for us to come in here and beat a team like this. These last two games we haven't cracked, and hopefully that's a sign of maturity. |
It's just an eerie feeling being back on this floor and not seeing that kid out there. |
It's nice to see him get a triple-double, but I think it's something he can continue to do. He should build on that. He does a lot of good things. |
It's playoff time. I don't mind games like that, if it goes both ways. We played hard, we battled and you got to like games like that. |
