We just didn't score. It's not the offense. It was just (that) we're missing some shots. |
We just weren't in sync half the night, with guys out in foul trouble. It got to the point they were afraid to drive, afraid to do anything. |
We looked like a team that came off a four-day break and weren't very sharp or efficient offensively. Hopefully, we'll get better in the next few days because we're not good enough right now. |
We played George Mason last year; they played us to a very tough game out there. |
We played Gonzaga, we played Arizona, we played all these overtime games, and I told (my team during a late-game huddle ) I thought we've earned the right to win this game. I felt, looking at them in the eye, that they were looking back at me saying, 'Damn right we do, and we're going to get it done.' And that was encouraging. |
We played pretty well in both Illinois games and he just made some plays. Tonight, we found a way to clamp down a little bit more. Defensively, we didn't really give him a single look. |
We played well in spurts and I thought we hurt them with our transition game. We weren't rebounding well enough to get any breaks going in the first half. Rebounding is our Achilles' heel right now. |
We really didn't shoot very well. We just missed. In that first half, we were just throwing balls at the basket. |
We still played good defense and pretty good offense. We shot 50%, 40-something from three. |
We took more threes in this game than in the last two combined. |
We want to get back to running and wearing people down. This might be our most athletic team ever. |
We wanted to honor all the people who keep us out of harm's way every day. That's why we recognized our military, the Army and Navy, the Red Cross and emergency medical technicians. They're the ones who deserve the applause. |
We were kind of discombobulated. I thought I had better call a timeout. We were scrambling. |
We were out of energy. Playing Thursday-Saturday is a joke. |
We were out of sync. |
