As a big guy, that's your goal every game, to try to get a double-double. Hopefully, I can build on that. |
He's got so much toughness at the end of the game. He's always willing the take the big shot, and most of the time he hits them. |
I think everyone's comfortable with their role. We know what to expect and guys have found their way to how they can impact the game. |
It's just disappointing the way they got so many second-chance opportunities. That's where we really lost the game. They just seemed to have more guys around the basket than us. It's just disappointing to lose like that. |
So I don't think we had the same enthusiasm as this year. |
Sometimes a team that might not get in the tournament like some of the teams in the NIT might come in with a little something to prove, and that can work either way. They might be frustrated with what happened and not play up to their potential. Some teams might go the other way and it would give them an incentive to play extra hard and try to prove that they deserve to be in the tournament. |
There's only 105 teams in Division I still playing. We're fortunate to be one of them, and we really want to end the year on a positive note. |
This league has been so crazy this year, it's tough to gauge where everybody's going to finish. I try not to look every day, because you can psyche yourself out. |
We did a good job of pressuring the ball and communicating and rotating and playing through screens. |
We really got into a nice rhythm. We did a pretty good job of executing our offense. |
We wanted to come out and make a statement. |
We're on a roll right now. We can't wait to play another game. |
We've got the biggest week of our basketball lives. |
