Metcalf is a very good player. He can take you outside and inside. He's one of the few players I've seen who knows how to wrap that leg around you and then go to the basket.
They played a lot last year but they've come a long way this year. They've matured, not so much physically as mentally. Of course, we never know with this team. Earlier in the season, we played some great games, then we'd come out flat.
I think they're capable of winning it. They're well coached. They just beat us.
This group got beat in the playoffs last year. Now, it's our second year with a lot of the same kids back. You've got to win a playoff game.
I thought the key was the beginning of the third quarter. We had opportunities there but we just couldn't score.
I think the kids are pretty excited. It's not very often you get the chance to play at a college facility.
They embarrassed us down at their place. We were getting pounded on the boards and they were getting two, three offensive rebounds.
We were trying to take time off the clock and we made some bad plays. They scored and we panicked.
They're putting turf in and that's what made this work. And, from what I understand, they offered us the use of their facility.
They crowded us, and then our first thought was to dribble instead of passing or looking for the back door.
