Mike Pardon Team Quotations

We're trying to keep everything in perspective. We're just going to try to be prepared for everything and try to outwork them. The thing about the playoffs, though, is that you never know what teams are going to do.

Our team defense was very solid tonight and we caused a lot of interference in the paint. We played especially well in the second half, picking up a lot of loose balls and dominating the glass.

The most important thing for us was to get the win. We have had a lot of guys step up lately and our success depends more on teamwork than what one player does.

They didn't shoot very well in the previous two games and then they came out and hit 10 3s against us. I don't think it was our defense, though. We just ran into a team that got hot at the right time.

They are a very good basketball team and we're going to have our hands full. We're going to continue to work hard and we're not going to back down from them.

Eric did a lot of good things, but you have to credit his teammates for finding him underneath the basket. I thought we played good team basketball from start to finish for the third straight game.
