Definitely frustrating. We weren't as aggressive defensively as we started the half out. |
He just has a good, sensitive game. And I think with time he's going to keep getting better and better. |
I didn't think so and I'm sure none of my teammates or coaches thought we would be in this position, actually fighting to get one of the final spots in it. But that's what we did have to do and obviously we got it done. |
I mean, we just have to...I don't know. We just have to be strong in there. |
I think we had an advantage down low and my teammates were giving it to me. |
I'm just cool. I knew I could hit them. |
In the Big East they like to collapse. It's more physical in the Big East, much more physical. But if I'm getting guarded one-on-one, I'm going to go with it every time. |
It is a sense of urgency. We really needed to step it up. |
It's all mental than anything. We all just have to mentally want to win. |
It's up to us whether we want to rotate to stop the ball or try to get that rebound. That's within ourselves. We played with that sense of urgency. Not saying that we didn't have it before, but we haven't put it together for two halves like we did (Saturday). |
Not really. (The guards) were hot at the end of the game, so they kept the ball in their hands. |
Right about now, it's all or nothing. We know we had to get two starting tonight. |
These two teams we play, all of us are battling for a spot in the tournament. We have to want it more than them. |
This was a good test for us. We have to go into every game as being a battle. |
We didn't panic at all. Hard work, you can't really work on that. It's just something we have to do. |
