Harry Perretta Coming Quotations

I thought coming into the game that we would have trouble guarding them off the dribble because they were just too fast for us. And we did, so we tried to play some zone and they shot the ball well from the perimeter, so we got caught between a rock and a hard place. Once we lose the lead and have to play fast it is very difficult for us to win. We don?t score the ball at a high level.

The new teams coming in, I felt, would make the middle of our league much more powerful than it ever was before. And I think that's been proven this year. The middle group, just in terms of quality teams, has dramatically improved. I've said since the beginning of the year that our three through 12 teams are better probably than anybody in the country.

The teams coming into this league are really good, and that is a positive and a negative. They are going to affect the middle of the league. You will see a team finish fifth that will be 8-8 or 9-7 in the conference where before we finished tied for fourth and we were 10-6. That's a big difference.
