ball guys kicked moving offense open
We got the ball inside, kicked out, rotated and guys got open shots. I think our offense was really moving today.
That's what I do best. That's what we need now.
final four hoping means scoring
I'm hoping we can get back to the old N.C. State, even if that means me scoring four points. I want to win; I want to be able to say I went to a Final Four.
body box forgot hit trying
I don't know what happened. I was trying to box out Strickland, but something hit me, and my whole body went numb. I kind of forgot where I was at for a little while.
five four half maybe open
If we'd have made half our open shots, we would have been down maybe four or five at the half.
cost
We weren't able to make shots. That cost us the game.
loss moral
We don't look for moral victories. This was a loss like any other loss.
drop eighth knowing last ninth seed strong supposed sure tournament
We have to have a strong ACC Tournament. We were supposed to be like a 3 seed (in the NCAA), but I am pretty sure we are going to drop down from there. I think we have to go into the ACC Tournament like we did last year, knowing we had to win to get in. We have to win games. We don't want to be an eighth or ninth seed.
couple excuse fill guys missing tried
We are missing a couple of guys right now. That's not an excuse, because we have guys who can fill those roles. That's what I tried to do.
eyes four guys open sharing three
A lot of guys were really sharing the ball. You've just got to keep your eyes open when you're driving. We had three or four guys with three our four assists and that's what we need to have.
since
Definitely. I've been on a mini-tear since then.
fast five guys knew sent three
They sent five guys to the boards. We knew that as long as we could get the rebound, we would have a fast break, probably a two on one or a three on one.
came fuels guess short spark tried win
He fuels us with his energy, his 3s and his dunks. He is a big spark for us. I tried to do what I could, but I guess I came up short because we didn't win the game.
both defense teams wins
He'll probably find a way to get his points. Both these teams can score. It's probably going to be defense that wins this game.
