DeMarcus Nelson Team Quotations

It's unusual to play a team like that this early (in the tournament). I think it helps us and gives us more confidence. They had the best (regular season) record in the NCAA this year.

Any team we play, you might as well throw their record out of the window because they're not going to play like their record against us. But that's what makes each win for us even more special, because we really have to go out and fight each game.

We have to get better. There are a lot of things we can do to get better. This feeling that this team is feeling tonight. This hurt and this pain has to motivate us this coming week to get better and to prepare and get refreshed for the ACC tournament. We really have to come out in the ACC tournament and really have an edge and a fire in each and every one of us.

If a team leaves me open, I almost feel it's an insult and I'm shooting that ball with confidence. All of our guards have been drilled and prepared to take those shots and we're ready for them.
