I think today's game speaks for itself. We're just as tough as any team in the league. We just go out and play. We play hard. We play tough. We're a talented team.
A lot of teams have played zone, been putting a lot of pressure on us, taking us out of our fast break. I think tomorrow will be a good game to get up and down the court.
We're tougher than a lot of people give us credit for. This was a game we had a bull's-eye on for the last two weeks.
We were determined to win. We look at ourselves as a championship team. When we come off a loss, we just have to bounce back. It can't take two or three games. It's got to take one game against a very good West Virginia team.

We put so much work into it, especially this week, of really getting the game going, the tempo going.
We are a championship team at heart and these are the type of games that are preparing us for down the road.
It might be the same mentality we had last year. We struggled our first game last year in the Garden with the same team.
