It wasn't the prettiest game we've played but this time of year, it's survival that matters. The thing that concerned me most is that they beat us at our own game a little bit. They created some things with turnovers and transition that we usually do.
We came out in the third and just didn't get it done on the defensive end. We basically stopped playing on the defensive end.
Justin gave us a big lift. He came in and you could see everyone pick it up. It was like a shot of adrenaline.
If we knock down a couple shots, it's a totally different basketball game. At the end of regulation and overtime, two of our better shooters got good looks. They've just got to knock them down. I'm not faulting them on that, but we've just got to make some shots.
I just think offensively the whole night we weren't in sync. We took quick shots, we took long shots and we didn't execute defensively.
He actually got more time than I wanted to give him. But he was playing pretty well. We'll try to be careful with him and ease him back into it.
